We did Alice in Wonderland this year.
With the Queen of Hearts.
The Mad Hatter.
And of course, Alice (who recently got a haircut.)
Oh, and Dweedledee & Dweedledum.
We went trick-or-treating in the same neighborhood as last year (because it's so lovely.)
The Mad Hatter & The Queen of Hearts had to sit out a house for fighting.
So Alice went without them.
I don't know what that face was all about but it cracks me up.
The Queen of Hearts spilled her loot.
And then she laughed as her dad chucked acorns at The Mad Hatter.
Hope your Halloween was great.
Here's Halloween shots from 2009, 2008 and 2007 and I'll try to get our pumpkin patch and pumpkin carving shots up this week.


You have made my day. Love the costumes. I think the Queen of Hearts is my favorite. So great they agree to do a theme. Looking forward to more.

Love the pictures Karen - looks like you all had fun last night. We also did some trick or treating here - or "knask eller knep" as we say it! How much candy can a kid eat..... ;o)

Hi Karen I have been waiting for your stunning Halloween photos a day after Halloween in Australia although it is not as big over here as the USA but first time ever our local supermarkets had huge pumpkins in the store for carving. We have always had a few decorations but nothing major. Anyway your photos did not disappoint, they are stunning and I had to laugh about the "fighting" because afterall sometimes the whole adventure does not have it's downfalls where kids are involved. Just amazing pics, thanks for sharing (Kathy A, Australia - recent past student). xxxx

Thank you for posting these pics. My parents have a house on one of the side streets of this street. So it takes me back (almost) to when I was younger and had many late night drives on this steet trying to get home before curfew. I miss it.
