Halloween


Halloween!!  My kids love Halloween, especially Lilly!  That girl loves all thing spooky!!  The kids have literally been counting down the days till Halloween!  I set up a Halloween calender on the wall with stickers on all the days with activities planned and Halloween was all decorated up.  Every night we would cross off the days counting down to Halloween!  The day before the big night we carved the pumpkins that we got from the pumpkin patch!  


I'm not sure why Lilly looks so sad but she did decorate her pumpkin all by herself!!


Matthew's getting very good at drawing pumpkin faces!


Rick being silly with his pumpkin


And little Jax with his first pumpkin!


Our spooky pumpkins all lit up!!


This year we had a Knight, a Princess (Sleeping Beauty) and a Dragon!!  Both Matthew and Lilly picked their costumes out again this year, they just happened to fit together nicely in a theme!!  Jackson wore the same costume Matthew wore on his first Halloween. 



Lilly begged and begged me to put make-up on her, so I told her I would for Halloween.  She was sooo excited!!

Early in the day on Halloween my mom and I took the kids to the Mall to go trick'or'treating!  Then we went back to Grandma's to rest, have some dinner and wait for Daddy to get home so we could go trick'or'treating for real!  As soon as Rick got off work we headed out!  After 5 blocks Lilly decided she was done, I think Matt would have continued on all night if he could!  We headed home after 2 more blocks and sorted the kids candy.  Then like the best parents we allowed them to go on a candy binge.  


Now that Halloween is over bring on the Holidays!!
