Halloween

So, I have a lot of posts tonight. I've gotten a little behind, because I've been a wee bit busy. Enjoy.

Richard dressed up as a pirate this year. He's really been into pirates since we went to Disneyland last Christmas. He often watches the "Pirates of the Caribbean" ride on the first Pirates movie special edition disk. He was excited about the hook, the patch, and the sword we borrowed from my sister.
We borrowed a couple of costumes for both kids from my sister and brother. However, Richard was so excited about dressing as a pirate, I really wanted to make that happen. Then, I found this costume for quite cheap and couldn't pass it up. Plus, it's big enough he can wear it next year!
Audrey had two costume options, but the one from my brother was quite large and she could wear it another year. This lady bug costume was a little big but worked quite well! We told her she had to wear the hood or couldn't get candy. So, the hood stayed on!
We dressed the twins up, just because we have the costumes and they look so cute! Since you probably can't tell, Marie is a cow. Peter is a bumblebee.
Both kids were really excited about the candy and enjoyed our ward trunk-or-treat. I wasn't too eager to go door to door and felt this was a great alternative.

Oh my gosh they all look so cute. Looks like you have been having some fun amidst all the busy. Hey I have something that I would like to bring over in the next couple weeks or so, but I don't know where you live. Email me and let me know or something. nichole@nametagsource.com

I'm amazed that you were still able to have fun and get your kids looking adorable for Halloween! Nice work. It looks like your little ones aren't so much fans of the bath - but hopefully they'll warm up to the idea. Oh, and that picture of you and your grandma...you look awesome. Not so much like a woman who had unexpected twins two weeks earlier.
