Our first Halloween as a family of four. What fun. Months ago Mommy said she had this great idea for costumes (she's such a planner). She thought the big three could be Jedi knights and Maddox could be yoda. Sure sure, cute idea, but Maxer and I had other ideas for our costumes. She was sad to realize that gone are the days when we blindly comply with her costume whims. :) but...less sad to realize she could just save the $200 bucks worth of costumes. So, we decided we wanted to use superhero costumes we already had...she said fine.




But let's not get ahead of ourselves. On Halloween at my school, we had career day. I decided I wanted to be a miner. Mommy is pretty sure I just wanted to borrow Daddy's head lamp. Max had a Halloween party so he went as the flash.




The little boys wore Halloween pjs to school. It was a fun day. We were all set to go to the Halloween festival in our town,

But then!! Mommy and Daddy surprised us with a bunch of new costumes they scored on craigslist. So, we tried on lots of different options and decided on:


Ninjas! Even Daddy dressed up. What fun. I especially liked my costume because you couldn't see my face.




Mason went as spiderman. I think he was sad we weren't all superheroes as planned. But all was ok after he got a few smarties in him.




Maddox went as a hungry hungry hippo. ;)




Our little town has a great Halloween tradition where they shut down main street and all the shops pass out candy. It is one good time!




Here we are at The Dinner Bell. Our good friends are peeking out the window at us :)







Here's my cousin, Austin, scaring us!


And here we our with our good buddy, Collier.

I hope you guys had a great Halloween too!
