Halloween Prep

We spent our Saturday before Halloween getting ready for the big day. We decorated our front door, got our candy bowl all filled and of course carved our pumpkins. Erik and I carved ours during Lucy's nap while we watched some recent sitcoms Halloween episodes. Then when Lucy woke up we decided to let her paint her pumpkin. 
Oh boy! Did she go to town or what?! She has actually never painted before, and she doesn't love to be messy so I wasn't sure how this would go down, but she really got into it! 

But then, things took a turn for the worse... 
 It got a little messy and somehow got all over her legs and her hands which, somehow led her to think the only way to get this off is to lick it...uh oh. game over. Dad threw her in the bathtub while I cleaned up the table cloth. It was fun for the 10 min. it lasted though! hah!

Take a look at our finished products. Not too shabby huh?

I love Lucy's pumpkin- what a fun idea (even if it was messy). Also, that costume really is adorable, what a cutie!
