Halloween Fun

Halloween this year was so fun. Hannah really got it this year and has decided that Halloween is the best day ever. She has already decided that she going to be a giraffe next year.

We started with carving pumpkins. Hannah didn't like the cleaning the guts out because it was "too gross" but she did like helping Brian pick out a face for the pumpkin.

Hannah and I made some crafty decorations. The spider and ghosts are made from Hannah's hand print.
Hannah was a witch this year. I have to admit that I was proud of the costume this year. I saw the spider skirt on Martha Stewart and think my version turned out pretty good.
We had lots of Halloween activities. Hannah's play group had a Halloween party. Here's Hannah with her best friend Sarina all dressed up.
We decorated Halloween cupcakes with our neighbor.
We had a great time at our annual ward carnival and trunk or treat.
And Hannah really, really loved trick or treating. We practiced saying trick or treat and Happy Halloween all month and so when it came to trick or treating, she was a pro. Hannah wasn't shy at all and just ran right up to the doors and knocked and said "trick or treat" followed by "thank you" and multiple "Happy Halloweens". She even learned to say "I put a spell on you" which occasionally came out "I put a smell on you."
Sunday morning Hannah went downstairs while Brian and I were getting ready for church. This is how I found her.

What a fun posting. I can understand how Hannah could put a smell on you. I guess she had a little extra sugar Sunday morning. That must have been the case for most of the Primary. Loved the story and love you.

Love the "I put a smell on you" That's probably way worse than whatever spell she might think up!
