Trying to keep the kids busy and our minds off moving, we went in search of the perfect pumpkin at the Beck Row pumpkin patch. They have pony rides and local crafters set up. Ava wanted her face painted to be a pink Tiger, and the painter did a great job.
Sooo Scary!
The pumpkins this year were really green...disapointing
It was a bit soggy and cold but we made the best of it. Good thing we found our perfect pumpkins before the rain started.

Our costumes had to be planned out months in advance. Needless to say Dave and I were lame. Dave used a free wig that came in the Madagascar 2 DVD case and was a Clown (a little more Rodeo then Circus) and I was a witch (somehow I forgot to get a picture.)
The last time we had to PCS during Halloween we were just as lame, Oct 2009

He would have made a really cute clown!

Ava and Owen went as Dorothy from the Wizard of OZ and a skeleton. I made Ava's apron dress from an old bed sheet, which had to be done before the movers took my sewing machine.
Halloween is getting bigger and bigger in the UK but we still wanted to be sure our candy was GONE at the end of the night, so we opted to go on base. There are so many kids trick or treating on base that they close the streets and they are flooded with little goblins running around. Most people are out of candy in 20-30 minutes! We met up with friends for some food and fun.

We had so much candy, Ava was more then willing to share
Owen on the other hand was a hoarder...
HAPPY HALLOWEEN 2012
