One of my favorite parts of Thanksgiving:

We only had 25 pies to split between the 36 of us. Strangely I am craving pumpkin pie more than ever now. :)

Shredded Paper

I had a few papers to go through and shred today. I let Victoria help me. She was really great at taking the full shredder and dumping it in the bigger garbage can then bringing the shredder basket back to me. After I was finished I went into the kitchen to find I had shredded a lot more paper than I realized.

Halloween

This last week has been pretty fun. We actually celebrated Halloween! First we had a good friend visit us and we carved pumpkins and made pumpkin pie, my favorite. Then we had friends over to watch a movie on Friday night. Here's our pumpkin.

And here's our punkin pie.

Saturday I was in the mood to make some wings for Leah's bee costume, and since I made those for her... of course I had to make some wings for Victoria.
And then because I was in the mood, and Victoria and Leah fight over the one tutu we have, I made another tutu for Leah.
But Victoria was a unicorn for halloween, so the wings for her were for playing like a butterfly or a princess or as I overheard her dad telling her... a fly. She did consider being a unicorn with wings, and about five minutes before we left for the party she claimed she wanted to be a butterfly instead of a unicorn. Luckily the wings were still wet and she couldn't change.
We had a great time at the ward Halloween party. Leah definitely "got" the trick-or-treat thing. It was pretty funny. Victoria got a load of goodies and wouldn't trust anyone to help carry her bags. Here they are after the party, a little tired, but I think happy with their haul.
