We celebrated a great Halloween this year, our first in our new home. It has been a pretty rainy week, so I was worried trick-or-treating would be miserable, but luckily the rain stopped Friday morning, and the afternoon was dry and even pretty warm.
Asher was a monkey this year, and even says the sound for a monkey. He also liked the banana in his pocket. He needed a little bribing with some fruit snacks for the group shot and for his individual shot. Davis finally got him to smile by doing all sorts of crazy things behind me.
James changes his mind almost daily for the last month on what he wanted to be for Halloween. Luckily, they were all costumes we already had. He wore his Super James costume from last year to his preschool party and to Shane’s work trick-or-treating, but for the official Halloween trick-or-treating, he went for the bug costume. He especially liked the binoculars.
Davis has know for awhile that he wanted to be a robot, just like Landon was last year. Unfortunately, I tossed the box in the move last year, so I had to make it again, but it’s pretty easy. This one was definitely a favorite and got the most comments as we went to trick-or-treating.
Landon dressed up as a character from Harry Potter. He read all the Harry Potter series this summer, and then read it again and again. He didn’t want to be Harry Potter because of his blond hair. He especially liked his wand which lit up and made different noises.
James and his good friend Ty both love to dress up. They were excited to see each other’s costumes and to pose for a picture. The little monkey wanted to ride his scooter around while he waited for the other kids to get their pictures.
We went trick-or-treating just walking around our neighborhood, and passed several haunted houses, spook alleys, and pretty elaborate cemeteries. The evening was beautiful, with clear skies and a bright moon. We came back home after and watched The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown while warming up with some hot cocoa.
