Happy Halloween....in November!

So it decided to snow here in CT a couple days before Halloween. Lots of towns were again without power (Hurricane Irene had also hit us this year leaving many without power for over a week....not us though!). Because of the snow, and the lack of power to areas in Norwalk, the mayor "recommended" that Halloween be observed the Saturday following October 31st on November 5th. This year Harrison was Harry Potter and Emerson decided to be Toad from Super Mario Brothers. Originally, Emerson really wanted to be a character from a show that Daddy likes called "Dr. Who" that plays on the BBC Network. He wanted to be a "Dalek", a mean robot that goes around saying "EXTERMINATE". Let me just tell you how difficult it is to find a costume for a kid from a show that doesn't really play in this country. :) SO, after some convincing, he decided on Toad. The Newsom girls, Jasmyn and Jayda, came over to trick or treat with the boys too. The haul wasn't as big as it usually is, but they still got plenty of candy. Here are a few pics....





Daddy and Emerson carved these pumpkins for Halloween too. Daddy carved "Bowser" from Super Mario Brothers on Harrison's pumpkin and "Boo" from Super Mario Brothers on Emerson's pumpkin. Pretty good job, Daddy!
