Halloween Happenings

Did everyone else out there have an exciting Halloween? I heard of some pretty good costumes from some of you. Here's some of how we spent our frightful weekend!

Last weekend we heard there was a Halloween Pet Parade in our town of Sunnyvale, so we took Banjo over to check it out. Here's Kate and the 'Jo with the parade marching down Murphy St.

Even the music was dog-themed! (And from this highly festive community marching band - they even had a keg that they rolled around in a converted popcorn stand with them, you can see it at the end of the video.) Check it out for yourselves below:



Thursday we went to our annual Pumpkin Carving Party hosted by Rachel and Adam. Kate and I did Calvin and Hobbes this year for our pumpkins (last year was Bert & Ernie). Adam is a graphic designer by trade - can you tell which one is his?

You may remember Adam's Einstein pumpkin from last year, too - quite impressive. Here's our two in place to welcome trick-or-treaters at our house.


After handing out candy for a while we went to a costume party with some softball friends. Aside from our Jack & Jill (went up the hill...) costumes, there were some pretty good ones, including
  • Hillbilly couple (complete with 8.5-mo. pregnancy, I [heart] Palin tatoos, fake cigarettes, and fake bad teeth)
  • Hippie couple w/tie dye and afro
  • Sorceress
  • Wonder Woman
  • Sarah Palin (of course)
  • Cloudy with a chance of showers
  • Mario (of Nintendo fame, complete with huge white gloves
  • Joe the plumber
  • Construction worker
  • Surgeon
Here are the girls:
And the boys:
Hope your Halloween was as full of treats as ours was!
