Our Halloween

This has been a long but fun week for the Jensen Family. Wednesday night, we went and had pizza at my parents house and carved pumpkins with the girls. It was fun to open the pumpkins up and watch the girls' expressions as they scooped the seeds out. Noelle loved it, which surprised me because she doesn't like to be dirty, but Joleigh was not a fan. Joleigh was the designer telling me what to draw and Grandma Ryall carved them. It was a good time!

Then on Thursday, Joleigh had her preschool party. She dressed up as Cinderella, her favorite princess, and Noelle was Tinkerbell. Noelle and I went to school with her that day to watch and be a part of her party. Is was so much fun to see her in action with all of her friends, and see what she does and what she is like when she is away from me. She couldn't wait to get there and see what costumes all her friends would be wearing. After the party the class and parents went to a nursing home to sing songs the students had practiced and pass out candy. The kids were adorable and the senior adults loved having them there. It was a great time for everyone.

On Friday, we carved our special pumpkin with Daddy and drew faces on the little ones we got from the pumpkin patch. We were going to stay in our neighborhood, but there were many people not going to be home, so we got ready and went over to my parents house for dinner, then a little trick or treating, then went over to Joe's dad's house for more trick or treating. The girls had the best time! It took a few houses before Noelle learned that you can't eat the treats right away, that you wait until later. They were so absolutely adorable and innocent and truly reminded me how much fun can be had. Here a some pics from our exciting week. We hope you had a very Happy Halloween!
