best halloween ever!

it was a beast to carve, but with the help of a stencil and a wicked pumpkin carving kit (two knives for bulk and precision carving) canuck and i cranked out this beauty. cookie went nuts for it!


We didn't get too many trick or treaters, just a few larger groups of kids so now we have all this excess candy lying around. which is bad, bad, bad, 'cause you know who will eat it...

cookie went as a princess - she's wearing a tutu under her "princess fur coat" and these plastic beads/pearls that i bought from walmart for $2 that stunk to the high heavens like skunk - maybe it was the plastic or something, but man, did they reek! cookie didn't seem to mind, tho. she refused to take them off when we got home!

yeah, i'm cute. now gimme some candy!
