Halloween!

The Watsons continue to loooooove Halloween!  And we had another great one this year, with our 4th annual "Frightening Function" at the house.  Dave and Terri came early to decorate our home with lights, and they really made the place look amazing.  Our guests all commented on it as they arrived.  Tom tied glow sticks to the trees, also, and on the windy night, it looked like eerie spirits of many colors haunted our woods.  The tree limbs bounced so high- the lights seemed to be flying!  
On Halloween night, we trick-or-treated once again in Stacy's neighborhood.  Whitley wore an awesome Merida costume, complete with red hair!  We went in the Davis's backyard to do the spraying, and Drew came to help.  He was so cute, giving me lots of feedback on spots I missed and how to make it look more real.  (Drew's big in to authenticity, and I think he was pretty impressed with our going the extra length to make Whitley's hair look like her Scottish idol.)  Incidentally, Whitley loved her red hair and regularly asks me when we can color it again.  :)  It was a nice night for walking the neighborhood, and the kids got quite a haul, as usual!  Thanks for hosting us, Davis clan!  It's such a fun tradition!  

Tom and I recycled our costumes from a Santa Crawl a few years back.  

Orange lights lit the house, and lanterns lined the driveway.

Some of my girls!  Katie was a gold-digger and Terri, a cowgirl.  

My Merida, complete with cape, bow and arrow,  gown and red hair.  

Princesses and Superheroes- what ever did kids do before them?!


Drewby- always in character!
Ready to go!
