Halloween Hoopla

Halloween may still be several days away, but I think it's safe to say that we've enjoyed a fair amount of Halloween hoopla already. We've eaten enough treats to choke a horse, decorated and sent Halloween cards, completed Halloween crafts, and made and played with orange play dough.
The girls have dressed in costume just about every day in October and practicing trick-or-treating is a regular event in the Hepper household.  Last week we went to the Halloween party at Westwood and today we enjoyed a pumpkin carving playdate. Now that the week of Halloween is finally upon us, we are looking forward to a couple more parties and the main event: trick or treating!!
The twins SUPER excited to go to the Westwood Halloween party as Minnie Mouse and a pink crayon...
....except that by the time we were leaving, everyone had changed their minds and their costumes.
Daddy and his lady bug setting off to hunt for the perfect pumpkin.

The twins were a little more interested in riding Mary Kate's roller coaster than carving pumpkins...

The Bains had an extra special treat to share: a Frankenstein ice cream cake! 
6 children, 6 pumpkins!
