Halloween

Well, this is a belated Halloween post. I guess I should have uploaded the pics last week, but I got busy and then sick and then busy again. Apologies for the lateness...enjoy! This first pic is of our traditional (in every sense of the word) carved pumpkins. Lexi's friend Leonora came to visit after barnehage last Friday. When Tim got home, he helped each of them carve a pumpkin. They had loads of fun. They were so high-strung afterwards, I didn't get any good pics of them posing with the finished products :(

This may be our 2011 Halloween pic of Lexi... Thankfully, I got some good ones of Lillian and the pumpkins a couple of weeks ago. Lexi would never pose for me.
Lexi and I made Halloween cookies (iced sugar cookies) that she took to barnehage to share on Halloween.

Here are the girls on Halloween. (Hmmm, let me guess, you guys are still in shorts and t-shirt weather?). Anyway, this was taken after Lillian and I picked up Lexi from barnehage - around 3:30pm in the afternoon.

Lexi got to go trick-or-treating for the first time ever this year. She wanted to be a witch because Grace was a witch. So, I picked up this costume at the last minute. Tim took her up into the upper neighborhoods and was amazed at the amount of trick-or-treaters. Halloween has really started to take off here. She came home with lots of goodies. We probably had about 30 kids ring the bell here at our house in the lower neighborhood.

Lillian had a stomach bug that started on Halloween afternoon. She threw up a couple of times and didn't feel the best. But, here she is anyway. (Outfit compliments og Grammy and Pops.)
