Pirates, Witches and Pumpkins, Oh My!

We went over to some friends house last night for a halloween party. Jared and I were going to go as Wesley and Buttercup from Princess Bride but I couldn't find a red dress anywhere. So we went as pirates. It was a small group but so much fun. Cory and Annie and James and Emily hosted the party, and my family plus the Wray family came along for the ride. We had pizza, soda, salad, and sugar cookies. It was a great meal. Trying to get the kids to pose!
My sweet little witches! Yesterday Kenzie came up with this story, "mom, I'm a witch and I am going to turn you into a bird. Then I'll catch you and put you in a cage." She said, "Bibidy, bobidy, boo..." I started cawing and flapping my wings. She said, "Fly mom!" I did, and then she grabbed my shirt, and put me in the orange chair and acted as though she were locking a cage, and then walked away. Alexis, who was watching from the side, came up to me a few seconds later and said, "Here bird, I'll turn you back into mommy, bibidy, bobidy, boo!"


Decorating our sugar cookies that are in the shape of pumpkins.

"EEEEsssssse! Eli is so freaking cute!






No, we did not string Eli up, this is a pinata.

Bobbing for apples. Mackenzie had a hard time but she finally got one. She was all wet though!









Yummy apples.

Those are some fun pictures! Zeeli does "bippidy boppidy boo" also and turns me into things. She insists on being a princess though.
