Halloween
Halloween was a busy and fun day. It marked 11 years of pumpkin carving together for us - a tradition begun on our first date. Using patterns has definitely helped the finished product - and this year Evelyn helped dictate the subjects for our carving.
Evelyn received a new tutu for her birthday from Aunt Becky, along with a book "I Wear My Tutu Everywhere." Evelyn does like to wear her tutu everywhere, and she wore it on Halloween night. She is holding the pumpkin that she helped paint. She declared the Cinderella Pumpkin to be her favorite.
Some of the on campus families had a gathering early in the evening - here is a group picture. Notice the child dressed as the "Angel of Death" giving Evelyn skeleton finger bunny ears. He is 7.
Some of Evelyn's friends from our S-pad...they were dressed as "Neon Nerds."
The new baby was dressed as a pumpkin - I confess I stole this idea from a friend in Oklahoma a few years back. Not everyone got it - one teen asked if I was "static cling" for Halloween.
Evelyn took candy to Brian's classes again this year in costume. The students really enjoyed it. Here Evelyn is "working" in her dad's office.

More Birthday Pictures
Evelyn actually got to eat her cupcake on her birthday, Sunday, the day after her party. We saved the one with Cinderella, her favorite princess, in the middle. She declared, "I'm eating Cinderella Mommy!"

Evelyn's Birthday Party
Evelyn is 2 years old! We celebrated on Saturday afternoon in front of our house with a costume party for the neighborhood children and her friends from Bible class. All of the children came in costume and we had a costume parade! The kids were all pretty cute. Evelyn was a princess (dressed as a ballerina), and she had fun wearing her costume. Her cousin Justin was a train engineer. The guests enjoyed wagon rides in the new wagon from Granny and Grandpa, and the kids enjoyed playing with Evelyn's train table.
Justin looking cute!
The party had a subtheme of the Disney princesses, and to be festive Mom wore her princess costume too! But Evelyn was definitely the cuter of the 2 princesses!
