This is chronologically out of order but the pictures from Halloween are fewer and easier to manage so we'll present that first. We had several pumpkins that we hollowed out and carved into jack-o-lanterns. I went shopping for mine late on the date before Halloween, so all the good ones had already been sold. I bought one which laid on its side, which made carving a little challenging.
We were joined by our college age friend Liza, who we know from church. Notice that the evening started off warm enough for Jacob to be wearing just a t-shirt and no shoes.
These are the children of our neighbor up the hill. They are dressed as Spider Man and some other muscle-bound super hero (sorry, I'm not up on my super heros these days!)
We had many trick-or-treaters before it got dark.
Our neighbors across the street wore elaborate costumes and attracted many visitors.
Some of the costumes were pretty scary!
And some were very pretty...even if they were witches!
Our Pastor Amy joined us, as is our Halloween tradition.
I believe these little kids were being brave to wait for Jacob, the big Indian, to give them some candy.
Jacob held his tomahawk in his hand, and I think that concern this little guy a bit.
Here's part of the gathered group as night fell.
It got colder and colder and Betsy and Stephen, who are used to the heat of Columbia, South Carolina, bundled up. They are leaving for Texas in less than a week!
This is Reagan, the grand-daughter of our downhill neighbors. We've known her since she was a baby.
Jacob had just a few friends stop by and say hello.
This little fellow won the award for cuteness.
After we decided it was too cold to stay out any longer, our friends from church the Anderson-Tirros arrived to greet us. Their youngest son Trevor demonstrated his "hide in the box" costume.
