Halloween 2012

Halloween 2012 started out with a visit to the Cumberland Museum to launch a pumpkin in the trebuchet. We selected our pumpkins decorated them with markers and passed it over to be launched. After decorating the pumpkins and waiting Ronan became slightly attached to his pumpkin and didn't want to launch it. So we brought him home.  Watch for him in the last photo.

A fall family photo. Just what we wanted. Check out the eyes on that 4 year old!



Ronan was a fabulous Thor. Thankfully the evening was warm enough to just wear a sweater under the costume. Trick or Treating was a two stage process after 8 houses we stopped at home so Ronan could check what was in the bag then we head out for another bag full.
 
The week before Halloween Ronan came up with an idea to create a cemetary. While I was away at my conference Matthew assisted Ronan in bringing his idea to reality. Below is what they created. Matthew added a black light for effect. It was enjoyed by many of the trick or treaters on Halloween.
