Nathaniel surprised me with his Westly costume right before our church's trunk or treat celebration Sunday.
I didn't have a Princess Buttercup costume, but I was able to come up with a reasonably medieval costume with Lydia's old Maleficent dress and some fabric for a head covering. The evening went very well. The kids had a ball. We had a couple of photo backdrops. I never got a picture of my people in front of one, though.
My niece and nephew were in town and able to join our kids. I was at the craft station.
The pumpkin hammering station was very popular. I set out toy hammers and golf tees, and the kids had a ball hammering them into pumpkins.
Years ago, when I taught preschoolers, we did this. It's great for hand/eye coordination. It's also oddly satisfying to hammer a pumpkin.
