Halloween 09

What a whirlwind of a weekend. Costume Contest. Pumpkin Carving Contest. Kid’s Parties. Adult Parties. All so much fun!

Joe’s office had a costume contest. We went as Wolverine. He didn’t win. 🙁 But he should have!
 
On Halloween Day we went to a party with the kiddos. Jude was Luke Skywalker Training with Yoda on his back! Yes, that was completely Joe’s idea. He even made the little backpack.

On occasion I try to intervene and…
