Boofest '11

I have been a terrible blogger! I am going to try to be better- I promise!!!!Thanks to Alana for these pictures.

Every October my best friends from college (The Allstars) get together WITH our kids (the Twinkles) for the weekend. There are Halloween crafts, a bounce house, and a lot of snacks and wine involved! This year all 7 moms and 11 kids headed down to Houston. We had a great time!

Here is everyone in our MATCHING pajamas. We love to dress them alike!
(L to R: Drew, Kate, Ben, Jack, Ellen, William, Julianna, Caroline, McKinley, baby Kellen, John)

Here we are in our Halloween costumes. This is never an easy picture. Lots of tears! Usually because we do this in the afternoon on the second day when everyone is good and tired, because we like to torture ourselves.
(L to R: McKinley as a Fairy, Kellen as a toadstool, Julianna as Minnie Mouse, Caroline as a Bride, Kate as Snow White, Ellen as Jessie, William as Woody, Back Row: Ben as Optimus Prime, Drew as Darth Vader, John as Bob the Builder and notice a very upset Jack as a jack rabbit in the front!)

And on Sunday we wore our ghost footprint shirts we all made. Jack has his on I promise but he was in no mood for pictures!

Next year we will have at least 12 Twinkles because Caroline Elizabeth is on the way!


The greatest poem ever known
Is one all poets have outgrown:
The poetry, innate, untold,
Of being only four years old.
~Christopher Morley, To a Child
