Halloween

The kitten, spiderman, and turtle before we went out door to door.
Scarlett saw Amelia's dress and instantly fell in love. Weirdly, Amelia wanted to be a cat, so the trade worked out nicely.
Our kids were burning up. The back of their necks were getting all sweaty. It was almost 80 degrees while we were out. And so humid. Yuck.

Of course we had to have boney-finger breadsticks for dinner. I forgot to take a picture of the plate full of fingers, so here is a pic of the last one. I just painted slivered almonds with red food coloring mixed with water for the fingernails. In the past I've taken the time to make them more realistic (ie: actually sculpt knuckles into them). This year I was in a hurry.

I'll have to try those boney fingers. They do look so realistic. I will be wishing for that warm weather in a month. Cute costumes.

I loved that the kids traded costumes! So funny!

Nathan's costume kills me for some reason! And those fingers kind of gross me out...
