Whether you’re a witch, a skeleton or a ghost, there’s a lot of fun to be had dressing up for Halloween. So many amazing characters on display this year too, from the utterly brilliant to the downright scary! There’s no denying the BritMums community loves getting into the spirit of Halloween in some way or another.
This month’s Snapshot Round-up had to kick-off with this adorable photograph from Barktime. Proving you’re never to young to enjoy your first Halloween.
The Brick Castle has been creating ghoulish characters and showcasing some seriously scary faces. This is a great example of capturing a brilliant and no doubt entertaining moment.
Meanwhile Mum Turned Mom was lucky enough to attend her first Halloween party accompanied by two ninjas and a Princess ‘Fia. The older brother doing a sterling job of bringing the siblings together.
They’re not the only ones getting into character. Just look at Actually Mummy’s daughter as the Bride of Dracula. The outfit is ace but the pose and the expression are just priceless.
Just a Normal Mummy seems to have perfected the art of face painting with this gem of a capture. Still looking gorgeous even with a spider on her face.
Many of us have been taking advantage of the great outdoors. Honest Mum has been at Famer Copleys in Pontefract for their Pumpkin Festival.
While The Boy And Me visited Hendrewennol for some haunting activities and was even imprisoned in a castle. The Boy even carved some of his own pumpkin for the first time.
Hats off to The Purple Pumpkin blog as they grew their very own pumpkin. Not only that it seems they are seasoned pros when it comes to carving.
On the subject of carving, Frozen fans will appreciate this one. Downs Side Up‘s very talented second cousin spent hours creating Princesses Elsa and Anna for her daughters. They must have been thrilled to receive this.
As for the Doves, we took a tractor to a pumpkin farm where we handpicked two absolute beauties. There might have been a pumpkin witch in the house this week too.
That’s it for October, keep your eyes peeled for next month’s theme. If you’d like to get in touch, you can contact Charly via PODcast or Twitter @The_Doves.
