HAPPY HALLOWEEN

We had a wonderful Halloween this year. The weather was nice and warm so coats and gloves weren't needed. However, we missed all our friends and the annual party at the Winegars. Maddie didn't have school and it was a really long day for her. She got up at 6:00 a.m. and I tried to get her to take a nap but there was no way that was going to happen. When it came time to go out and trick or treat Maddie was so excited but by the time we got about half way around the block she was complaining that her feet hurt, her bucket was too heavy, and she was tired. Poor Girl!! Lauren on the other hand had a fantastic nap so she had a wonderful time. After every door we would go to she would say.....Just one more, ok mom. It was fun to watch her and Maddie trick or treat. When it came time to decide on what to be this year, there was no hesitation. Maddie was a dog, of course, and Lauren was a princess. Cinderella to be exact. Parker didn't care so it was a skeleton for him. We spent lots of time on the costumes this year and thanks to my mom and her wonderful sewing abilities, the costumes were a hit!!



What a cute bunch

Parker is such a happy guy

This is Parker screaming like a skeleton

What better way to spend the night than to get
in the bucket with all the candy??

It doesn't get any better than this for Maddie.
She LOVES to be a dog....barking and all
This was the Halloween party we had with Jeff's cousins.
It was quite a party and we had lots of fun

Surprise! Surprise! Maddie was a dog and Lauren a princess. That is too cute! Isn't it funny how long their obsessions last sometimes? (We are still stuck on horses at our house...going on 3 years!) I seriously cannot believe the pictures when I see Parker. He is so grown up. Your kids look adorable. I am glad to see that you guys had a fun Halloween. We missed you!
