Happy Halloween!

Since Halloween was on a Sunday this year, we were able to cram in a little more fun than usual. D didn't have to race over to church from work, so he wore his Elvis costume (which he already had from a work party a couple of years back).

little red riding hood
k was little red riding hood. Yes, for the third year in a row. The cape still fit, and she wanted to wear it, so why not? I think we'll have to think of something new for next year, though.

cowboy
n was a cowboy. Someone gave us the shirt, so I just bought the bandana. (I didn't think he would wear a hat, though that would have been cute). He seemed to like the idea of putting candy in his bucket.

bounce house
This year k actually wanted to go into the bounce house, as long as n went with her. n wasn't quite sure to make of it, but k had fun bouncing, just like she does on our bed.

cotton candy
n also discovered the joy of cotton candy.

We got home before 6:30 so we went around our neighborhood for a little trick or treating, too. Then we turned on our own light and handed some candy out. This is the first time we have really been able to do it since a. we lived in a second story condo before, so no one came and b. usually we were still at the church harvest festival until it was too late for trick or treaters. Anyway, we'll see how long k remembers about the candy since she has forgotten about it quite quickly in the past.
