Best Halloween EVERRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!

No kidding, I just had THE best Halloween of my LIFE!!!!!!!!!! For the stage we are in right now, LESS IS MORE!!!!! I REALLY didn't want big plans- parties, dinners, blah blah blah- sometimes all the festivities can get in the way of my holiday fun, so we planned a very low-key Halloween... putting the emphasise on a few particulars....
1. Melvin costume
2. Carmeled apples
3. Jack-o-Lanterns
4. Trick-or-Treating/ passing out candy while watching an extremely light Halloween movie- we chose Harry Potter The Order of the Phoenix. :)

Here are some pictures....


SOOOOO adorable right?! I could NOT get over how unbelievably CUTE Melvin was! and THIS cute, without his tomahawk and Indian drum... which I remembered for the next picture and trick-or-treating. :)

The three little Indians. Clearly, Melvin was, and is, Chief.
I hate to keep going on and on... but I really should have taken just a small video of Melvin toddling along, clutching his tomahawk- with his Chiefly feathers blowing in the wind. Oh sigh... it was too perfect. EVERYONE thought he was THE cutest ever- and they told us so time and again. :) I was so proud.






Here are the pumpkins. :) I attempted to do a portrait of Melvin... it didn't turn out exactly right... but still.... I was proud of myself. Mark and Mel teamed up for the others... pretty much Mark did them, and they look awesome... while Melvin sat in his diaper on the table playing with our carvers. :) We kept a watchful eye.


The end.
