Trying to find time with Dan to carve our pumpkin was a bit of a challenge this year. We're grateful we could squeeze it in Oct. 29th. :) This also made it a little difficult to find a decent, symmetrical pumpkin at the store. In the end, we found one that was nicely shaped but it was covered in "warts." It made it extra spooky though. I was very grateful for Dan's muscles being present. This pumpkin was still quite cold from being outside and had a super thick rind!
The before- She's saying, "cheese!"
"Good job daddy!"
Besides drawing the face, McKenna and I also scooped the guts.
More muscle action
Keeping herself occupied
Ta Da!
I'm quite traditional when it comes to jack-o-lanterns. Kenna calls them "jack-0-terns."
These next two pictures were taken at the beginning of October when we had just borrowed these costumes from Dan's brother's family (THANKS!). I think she was sold on Mickey Mouse from day one and never gave the Bee a second thought. But it's cute to see her in it anyway. :)
Since we didn't decorate our car, these are only pictures I got of our ward's Trunk-or-Treat!
With her friend Shyah
Trick-or-Treating
Because we were waiting for a rain storm to pass, we didn't start until about 7:30.
And she's off!
She did pretty well saying, "trick-or-treat!" And we could occasionally get her to say, "hap haween!" (Happy Halloween)
We ran into another Mickey! I kind of wish McKenna's was plush like this little boy's was. :)
My sister Mickelle also joined us. You can't tell, but she's sporting a nice afro!
~Happy Halloween!~

She is so adorable! I love that you got a picture of Mickelle with her fro too!! YAY! :) Favorite picture would have to be the one of Kenna patting Dan's arm while he was doing the muscle work. So cute!
the bee is cute, but i think she was warmer in the mickey costume ;) and with utah = snowy cold halloween, that's what counts, right? ;)
Is that auntie pickle in the background? It looks like you guys had a great Halloween. Isn't it fun to have kids? Just changes everything about these holidays. :)
What an adorable little Mickey Mouse! Looks like a wonderful Halloween!
We got those pumpkins too and had to brake out an electric drill and saw to cut ours they were insane! We broke 4 knives trying to cut them! That being said Mckenna is super cute in her little mickey and bee costumes!
I think the "warts" gave the jack-o-lantern character :) It turned out pretty awesome. Good job!
Cutest Mickey Mouse ever! So we carved pumpkins October 30th. It's never too late. Haha. We when we bought our pumpkins they told us we could have a free "pumpkin with character" on our way out. It's was kinda warty too.
You can totally tell Kelle is sporting the fro! Thompson, so looks like you I think. Nice spooky jack o tern :)
She makes an adorable Mickey. I wish we could dress kids up in costumes more often :)
