So Much Halloween

Halloween started on Saturday for us when we took our costumes on a test drive downtown to Saratoga's Fall Festival.

It has been a yearly tradition and we were lucky to have beautiful weather this year.

The girls had their faces painted:

And wore their costumes. Even BabySlimJim happily dressed up. 

There was a concert on Beekman Street we stopped at first.

 

And we had to hit up the pumpkin rolling!

It was a big day to start the Halloween festivities!

Monday we finished up our Day of the Dead unit in school.

Then we carved pumpkins.

 The girls drew their designs and we helped cut.

 On Halloween we did some fun and festive science projects
 
 

And went trick or treating with our neighbors. I think this is the first year both girls really enjoyed trick or treating, staying out til almost 7:30 even though it was chilly!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
