For Halloween this year, my parents made a last minute trip up to Portland to stay with us for the day and celebrate Halloween. The boys had soccer games that morning, so they went back and forth with us to their soccer games as well as Kallie’s up in Beaverton. We were lucky that the rain pretty much held out through the games.
We weren’t so lucky that night. The rain started in the afternoon and didn’t let up. Jake and Stacey came over with their kids for dinner, and we had mummy dogs, taco soup, and Cheetos bones courtesy of grandma. (dinner pictures courtesy of Grandma too)
We were hoping the rain would let up, but it didn’t seem to be at all, so we finally put on our rain boots and rain coats, dug up as many umbrellas as we could find, and headed out. The rain only seemed to get worse, but the kids didn’t seem to mind as they went from one house to the next, gathering candy. Asher did get a little tired and wet, so he went home with Shane (and also so Shane could watch the Royals game), while we finished out the street and then headed home. Of course, as we rounded the corner to our house, the rain let up to only a light drizzle, but by then the kids were tired and ready to call it a night.
All ready to go! (with Kallie the cute photo bomber in the window)
It was too dark and rainy to get any great pictures of the kids that night, so I bribed them the next morning to put their costumes on and take some more quick photos. They were great sports!
Madeleine in her cute Halloween outfit.
Asher the cowboy – costume handed down from year to year and now worn by all four boys.

Landon and Davis as minions
James and Asher also insisted on a picture holding Madeleine too. Don’t worry – I wasn’t too far away for these shots!
