dressing up | The Last Krystallos

We don’t shy away when it comes to dressing up – you’ve probably noticed, but pumpkins are another thing all together!

We’d never carved pumpkins before and trying to decide what to carve took more time than sculpting them!

I also made ghost fairy cakes…to take for the treat table.

Bekah opted for Pikachu from Pokemon, and the following day Caitlin spent a long time choosing to carve a howling wolf and I, with no idea, finally decided to carve a pumpkin inside a pumpkin!

Outfits, of course, were well-planned and fun, and we were ready to party, or at least hang out as socially as those with social anxieties do.
Note: we don’t all have socialising issues, hubby can be quite the extrovert, especially when disguised as Death!

We missed Dan, and we wonder kind of Halloween celebrations go on in Canada? So if you miss Dan too, like us, here’s a throwback to the Year 2000…and a contrast with now!
