We travelled home today in time for Halloween. More or less as soon as we got home we started getting ready. The halloween decorations came out. These two cats are my favourites. Bought from TK Max a couple of year ago at Halloween they usually sit either in the lounge or the porch.
Before we went away I baked some fairy cakes and froze them so all I had to do when we got home was decorate them with some orange butter cream and some plastic Halloween bats and ghosts.
We bought back from Norfolk two pumpkins and Steven and Lara sat outside in the sunshine and carved them.
Out came the guts ........
........then the faces were drawn .............
....... and finally carved.
When it got dark they were put outside the front door With a plastic pumpkin that flashes on and off. (Not the best photo)
Each year I give the children some Halloween goodies. Before we went away I downloaded and printed onto card some Halloween Bag Toppers from http://www.sunflowerfriends.com/ and then attached them to the top of some cello bags which I had filled with various goodies from Mr Tesco and Mr Sainsburys.
Steven and Lara got dressed up and went trick or treating. (This is my photo of the day)
The treats they bought home should last them a week ....... but at the rate they are being eaten I very much doubt it!

Great photos of the pumpkins! It looks like a good time was had!
Looks like you all had great fun.
What a great collection of Halloween photos - love your POTD - the children look great in their costumes. They look as if they had great fun carving out the pumpkins.
