Halloween Bonanza - Part 3: Pre-party Antics

Our good friends, the Feehans, invited us over to their place in Kentfield for a Halloween pre-party. We really enjoyed ourselves and had a great time trick or treating with the kids in the neighborhood. It's normally a quiet place but Halloween is a special event and the neighborhood comes out in force. By "force" I mean candy, costumes, shaving cream, alcohol, food, and overall up-to-no-good antics. It's awesome.

Despite my multiple attempts to get pictures of our kids smiling in their costumes, this is all they had to offer me:

The Crew: Pumpkin Rex, Dora the Explorer, Minnie Mouse, Pirate Captain Samuel, Isabella and her poodle skirt, and Ellie the pumpkin:

In an effort to demonstrate to the chidren how they would feel if they ate too much candy, we used this pumpkin as an example and visual reminder (for those visual learners in the group).
