Halloween

I love when I can convince everyone to dress in a theme for Halloween.  And luckily it didn't take too much convincing this year.  Since paxton was so little it had to be a little creative.  I wanted something he could curl-up in and sleep.  Which is exactly what he did when we went to our Church Halloween party.  He slept the whole time.  He really is such an amazing baby!  Priceless....despite the symbol on his backside!


Of course every cop needs their supply of donuts...er, uh... candy. 

Here is the backside (sorta) of the shirt the kids wore for the party.  Eli also wore his Pies Obisr (that his how Eli spelled Police Officer for his homework about his Halloween costume.... I thought it was too funny) costume trick-or-treating



Kiah REALLY wanted to be Cinderella.  I knew I didn't have time to make her a costume this year because I procrastinated until after Paxton was born.  So I bought hers this year.  I can't believe how cheap costumes can be.... especially when I compare it to the cost of me making one.  Granted, the one I would make wouldn't be as flimsy.... but for a one night gig.... this was perfect!

Annalise could only speak of being a ghost.  I really didn't want her to have anything covering her face so she could wear it to preschool....and it would be easier to trick-or-treat.  So I trolled the internet and got some inspiration.  I procrastinated her costume the most...I made it the night before she wore it to preschool.  Luckily I had stuff around the house I could use.  I was so glad I never threw-out the broken tutu! I think the reason it looks like Anna isn't smiling is because there is a slight delay.... longer than I want, but better than my phone... between pushing the button and the picture being taken, and Annalise is always very interested in seeing her picture.
