Cost of potatoes? Buck and half. The looks on their faces? Priceless.
For Halloween this year we had a fire breathing dragon
(I'm going to let you think I made that costume!)
Little Red Riding Hood
(I couldn't talk her into Little Dead Riding Hood, darn it)
and the Travelocity Gnome
(How ducky!)
Jordan threw on a crooked hat, pulled up a pant leg
and called it "gansta".
(Hmmm)
Matt and I decided to do our country proud and went as
Sarah Palin (despite my feelings on her running) and John McCain.
(Everyone said Matt looked more like Bill Clinton than McCain.
Please tell me that doesn't make me Hillary (or Monica!).)
We carved our pumpkins in the nick of time on Thursday night. It was unseasonably warm this whole week, so we didn't want them to rot before Fright Night.
Brody designed his pumpkin face and
Aiden wanted a Wicked pumpkin
(she's dying to go to Wicked when it comes in April.
I'll have to see what magic I can work to get those tickets!)
Devin usually does a really elaborate pumpkin, but after an hour of working on hers, she let out a frustrated growl, whipped it around, carved a barely legible "BOO!" and said, "Done."
Then she asked, "You're not going to put that on the blog are you?"
Duh.

Sweet costumes, and I LOVE giving all the kids a potato, I think I'm going to have to steal that one for next year!
Devin's costume is hilarious! How did you come up with that one!?
Great poem Aiden! I actually thought it was a poem your mom had found online and posted until I realized your name was attached to it!
The thumbs give it away. Matt's clearly McCan't. The only thing better would be to know he went around calling everyone, "my friends." As for Monica, you'd have to be a whole lot chubbier and wear a blue dress.
