A Very Belated Trick Or Treat!

Argh, I am finally getting around to posting these Halloween photos of the kids. They were saved as a draft from the day after Halloween, and then I forgot all about them. Oh well, better late than never, right?!

Here is Hayden the "Fruit Bat"
I brought the costume home for him, and after trying it on and flying around the house for a while...he let me know that he wasn't just any old bat, but a fruit bat. Apparently there is a huge difference, and he wanted to be clear about it! He is a very literal boy~



And Erica as a Monkey or "Curious George." You may recognize this costume, as Hayden wore it last year. Their mom is a cheapskate, so it only made sense to use get another wear out of this cute, little costume! She made the cutest little monkey noises to sound convincing, too!!



Here they are with their friends & neighbors, Kendall & Taylor. We trick or treated
around the neighborhood with them, and had a ball.......


......while Jon stayed home to hand out candy & scare our trick or treaters!
Our home all decked out for Halloween:

This was his remote controlled, pneumatic ghost in the bushes:


Look out trick-or-treaters next year, as he plans to "kick it up a notch" for the next spooky season! That's my inventor husband, gotta love him! :)

Leaf Pile = Kid Magnet

A few requisite photos of jumping and playing in the leaves before they get bagged up and hauled off by the garbage truck!! What is it about leaf piles that just BEG to be jumped in? I remember it as a kid, and our children are no different...as you can see, they are enjoying themselves thoroughly!
