Happy Halloween!!!  The party started Friday with the church trunk-or-treat/Halloween dance, which was a total blast.  Mr. Brown won the 'most spirited dancer' award, which was no surprise, because passionate dancing is a Brown family heritage.  We love to dance and so we loved the activity.  Nut Brown was planning to go as Darth Vader.  We told him 'no masks', so he decided to shave his head and paint it all white, so he could go as the unmasked Vader.  (My kids are so cool for so many reasons.)  Here we are:

I decided to be Batman, so Mr. Brown said he should be Robin.  So I made Mr. Brown's costume as well and was very pleased with how well it turned out!  Rose Pink is a very glamorous witch-like person, and Bobo is Luke Skywalker.

Here we are with his 'most spirited dancer' award.

Tonight was trick-or-treating with some friends.  Here's Bobo as Luke Skywalker again (see the blurry lightsaber?):

Nut Brown in full Vader regalia:

Rose Pink as a 'blue fairy'.

Also we carved pumpkins... Mine is the one in the middle with the tall face.  I designed it and Mr. Brown did all the carving.  Rose Pink is behind hers- it has stars for eyes and eyebrows.  Nut Brown is behind his.  His was dropped and has a big crack in it, so he decided to make crying eyes for it.  Bobo picked out a tiny pumpkin that he could carry himself, and asked for a Batman face on it.  He totally loves that pumpkin.

Today we raked leaves and he said, It's the Batmobile, and put his pumpkin in the pile of leaves so Batman could drive the Batmobile.  He's so cute.
