This week we celebrated little Miss A's birthday. She is a joyful child and according to Rachel, has "the prettiest color of eyes in our family." She wanted a wedding cake (to match the one at Paul's sister's wedding). I didn't attempt a wedding cake, but this one was easy and turned out pretty cute!
We also had a great Halloween. After a freezing week, the weather mellowed a little and we had one of the most perfect Halloween days that I can remember. 
Don't all Dads carve pumpkins with power tools?

Our little bunny was happy to have his hat off!
This year we had a secret service man, a Hogwarts student, a 1950's girl, a Belle, a bumble bee and a bunny.
Our ward does a trunk r treat and this is Paul's spooky trunk. The older children got to go out trick or treating with a very cool witch and a very hip disco man. Paul and I had a treat because we got to stay home and pass out candy together (thanks Suz and James!!).
Great cake and great costumes!
ReplyDeleteI love the power tool carving the pumpkin! I agree that wedding cakes are so much prettier than birthday cakes. I can see why she'd want one.
ReplyDeleteWhat cute kiddos! Amberly was excited to see you had a 50s girl like we did. :)
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to Adrie! What a beautiful cake.
I used a power tool to carve my pumpkin too! I love the wig that Belle wore, and your bunny could not have been more adorable.
ReplyDeleteMatt pulled out his power tools this year also. It saved a lot of time and effort. Wish we would have thought of that years ago. I'm impressed with your "wedding cake".
ReplyDeletea wedding cake! miss a kills me!
ReplyDeletethumbs up on the cake
ReplyDeleteThe kids liked seeing the power tool pumpkins. And their cousins, too, of course! Lovely photos.
