Happy Halloween!

Halloween was a few days ago and I'm happy to report that we survived! It always gets really hectic right before Halloween with costumes to finish, pumpkins to carve and parties to go to.

I think I finished Tyler's costume around noon on Halloween this year (yes- I'm a procrastinator!). I really wanted him to be a pirate since I already had everything for a pirate costume, but he refused. So a Ninja he was!




Kate's was easy- a gnome. She's still at that age where you can pick the costume for her, I don't think it will be that way next year.







Ellie and her friend decided last year that they were going to be nerds together. We made a trip to the DI and found her the perfect pants, suspenders and glasses.






Anna (oops- no picture, what kind of bad mother am I??!) is too old to go trick-or-treating but dressed up anyway to hand out candy. She wore the dress I bought myself for an 80's themed party. It was a gloomy rainy day, but lucky for us- it stopped raining right as we were heading out to trick-or-treat. We even got a big rainbow for a little while.
