Happy Halloween!

We had a great Halloween - not as many Trick or Treaters as we would have liked but maybe next year now that the word might be out that we gave out full sized candy bars! McKenzie was feeling a little under the weather but she rallied for the end of the day and seemed to enjoy going out after dark all bundled up.

Here's our pumpkins in the day time as well as at night. Matt did the really intricate one with the witch stepping out of the cave and I did the two face ones. I think I make basically the same pumpkin every year but that's okay by me.



McKenzie wore her dog costume for Halloween and we had Matt's family over so she got to show off for Grandma and Grandpa Z and Aunt Jennifer, Uncle Chris and best of all cousin Claire. First we have McKenzie getting ready to go out doing a little last minute clean up with her lint roller and then we have our little doggie trick or treating at the neighbors. She just kept taking more and more candy... Matt finally had to pull her away.




McKenzie really enjoys spending time with all her cousins - Nathan and Kayla get their fair share of 'loving' from McKenzie but at least they are bigger and can love back if they want to. Baby Claire has to just put up with it. There is no doubt that there is a big kiss in Claire's future!




Here's another picture from last year - with McKenzie and one of our pumpkins.
