Out Come the Face Paints!

And so another season of face-painting begins....

First was Charlie's school Halloween party....

...and he continues to be a 'back of the bus' kid....

Then in the evening I had to re-do his face paint, and then do Kate's, and then do mine....as we had Kate's school's (and mine!) Halloween barbecue to go to.  A fun time was had by all, and the kids really got into everything this year, even Charlie!  Last year, his witching hour was 7pm, so he missed most of the excitement, but this year he managed to keep it going til 9pm - even longer than I was really wanting to stay out.

Kate was super-smart: she suggested we head towards Art Jamming first thing, to avoid the lines like last year!  They were numbers 1 & 2!

What would Halloween be without candy floss?

Kate, the beautiful (!) magician's assistant!

Charlie went for the big kids' game - donut-eating!  I think it was just a ploy to get more sugar.

Help from big sis...

Zonked out (or being turned into a mini-vampire?) at 9pm!
