Natalie had her heart set on dressing Sydney as a pumpkin for Halloween---and what do you know? We found a pumpkin suit (for a dog) on sale at Target. Natalie was elated.... Sydney, not so much.
Since Friday (Oct 30th) was a practice day for Natalie's gymnastics team, the coach said they could dress up and have a Fun Day. Deciding what to dress up as is one thing, but choosing a costume that will accommodate gymnastics is even more challenging! Natalie and a friend decided they would come as Bob the Tomato and Larry the Cucumber from Veggie Tales. Natalie, the taller of the two, was Larry. After dying tights green (such a lovely shade, too---will be able to wear these with ALOT of other things....NOT) and finding a green T-shirt she was set. They had a really great afternoon practicing as their alter-egos.
Here's a flying cucumber for you:
Kristin went to a birthday party as a "Go-go Girl." (Wow, kinda scary knowing I once owned and wore white patend leather boots...what can I say, it was the early 70's!)
And when the girls heard about Eric and Chelsea having a pumpkin carving contest, they cornered me and said "We have never carved a pumpkin!" So, this year, they have officially, popped the top off, gotten elbow deep in pumpkin goo, and (sticking to your basic triangles with the knife) carved their first pumpkin. A milestone for their baby books!

Loved the pics--Becky's 1st comment was that Sidney did not seem to be enjoying the costume, then we read the blog. HOW Funny!!!
