We had our first Halloween party of the year last night at Grandpa and Nana Bishop's house. They fed us yummy soups and rolls and supplied the whole family with homegrown pumpkins from their garden to carve. A fun time was had by all.... eventually anyway. When we arrived Rachel was in tears and not talking to anyone. We finally got it out of her that she didn't want to be a cat anymore, but Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz. WHAT??? It was so out of the blue. I had no idea she was thinking of dressing up as something else. After clinging to either me or her dad for awhile she decided to go ahead and have some fun. I have to admit my patience with her were gone, so Nate did most of the consoling. I thought she was the cutest kitty ever, but my opinion didn't matter much to her last night. Hopefully we'll be able to make it through a few more parties without any more major melt downs. I didn't get pictures of everyone all dressed up, but there are still plenty of opportunities coming up....
This is Nate's masterpiece! It's a beaut, isn't it? It's like a wretched old witch.... I love it!

I LOVE carving pumpkins (if you couldn't tell from my blog)! Cute pictures. Nate's pumpkin rocks.
What a fun time! Love the witch pumkin-how creative!
I love Nate's pumpkin too! I'm also glad to hear my girls are not the only fickle ones about their costumes. Caitlin wanted to be a black cat at one time, maybe we should have called you. But she changed her mind, yet again.
