Happy Halloween

Pirate, Pumpkin and Gypsy. I know that is culturally insensitive and would probably be banned on Ivy League campus Halloween parties, but pumpkins are just so cute! Most people thought Sabrina was a pirate girl since they assumed she was matching with Clark. Or they hate gypsy cultural appropriation.
Posing with a sign in front of one of Clark's preschool teacher's house.
Not everybody enjoyed every moment of dressing up. 
She isn't walking on her own yet, though I think she could if she wanted to. She will stand there when you let go of her hand but she won't even try to take a step without us. On the plus side, she rarely hurts herself. 
Clark and Sabrina both helped carve pumpkins. Clark instructed me on how to design his and he actually helped carve a little. 
Sabrina did all the designing on her pumpkin and some of the carving by herself. She also separated out the pumpkin seeds so we could cook them. She decided she didn't like the way they tasted, though. More for her parents!

I did this one from a book of jack-o-lantern designs. It didn't look great  during the day, but I think it looks okay at night.
This was another one from the design book that I liked a lot. Unfortunately, I did it 9 days before Halloween and the Dallas fall heat shrivelled it up so that it was useless 7 days before Halloween.

Happy Halloween everybody! 
As a bonus picture, this is Sabrina going to school on crazy hair day. What fun hair her momma styled for her.

What great pictures. Talk about adventures. Yow, a Pirate, a Gypsy Princess and a baby pumpkin. Great Jack-O-Lanterns. If I could find some really big turnips, we could try an original design.. Love Opa.
