Happy Halloween all. This year I dressed up as a new mother of twins, complete with spit-up. This cutie's costume is much cooler:
I'm reminded I was going to do a costume contest for characters from my books this Halloween. Make that NEXT Halloween when I'm (hopefully) not sleep deprived. Retroactive costumes will count. And now for our yearly pumpkin goodness from Laura:
Awesome Jack. Also two more to commemorate the birth of Dinah and Wren:










Yay for LR's pumpkins!

Hey! I saw you in that new mom get-up at the provo library on Saturday! :) Caught a quick glimpse of the twins - they looked adorable!

I dressed as a homicidal maniac. It's the easiest costume cause we look just like everyone else.
Those are amazing pumpkins. I would love to learn the control it takes to do the backlighting stuff. I'm doing well to just get eyes, a nose, and a mouth cut out that look like eyes, a noes, and a mouth.
