Halloween 2011

Jay carved pumpkins with the kids as usual.  He is the artist, so I don't really get involved.  I can't compete.  :)

Mary decided to dress as Hermoine Granger this year.  I thought she looked really good.

 

And Jack as a Clone Trooper.

 

At 12 years old Collin was feeling "too old" to dress up or go trick-or-treating, but at the last minute he ended up throwing on an old army jacket from a thrift store and went out to collect candy with friends.  I remember feeling very torn at that age.... it takes a few years to completely commit to quitting it all together, especially when all that candy is dangled in front of you!  :)
