Pumpkins, Poodle Skirts and Pom Poms

Well, I'm finally getting around to posting our Halloween pics.....sorry! We were in Las Vegas with the Melvin-Richards-Wiseman clan and I just didn't get it together before we left. We had a great Halloween this year, having two little trick-or-treaters, and Halloween definitely took on epic proportions in our house.....no really! It literally lasted the whole week! From Sunday to Friday of Halloween week, we had six Halloween events! Yes, six! We had a marionnette show, a class party, a friend's housewarming slash Halloween party, a birthday slash Halloween party, and we went trick-or-treating at a "place for lots of grandmas and grandpas" and finally, not too Halloween'ed out, on Halloween night itself, with a bunch of kids from Em's school. All of it quite fun, but it made for a long, sugar-filled week! Here are some pics of our fifties girl and our little pumpkin/cheerleader....I had a warm and a cold outfit for Nola, and she was able to wear both with all our events!!


The Daigle Girls' Party

Em's very excited about her goodie bag!
Halloween Marionnette Show - it is really very cute - all the kids wear their PJs and bring blankets and pillows to sit on while they watch they show, and they get hot chocolate and cinammon toast - as evidenced by Em's chocolate goatee! Em is with her friend Lillian, enjoying the show.

At school, all the kids dress up and get to walk up the ramp and show off their costumes. Then they have a parade outside around the playground. So adorable! I was working that day, so I got to dress up too! And Nola got to join us for some Kodak moments.

We went to the assisted living facility, or "the place with lots of grandmas and grandpas" with Patti and Ralph and Grace. Penguin Grace and Pumpkin Nola were not quite sure what to make of each other!
Finally Halloween! Trick or Treat!
