Halloween Fun

I'm finally getting around to posting our Halloween pictures, and I'm a month behind on all our other pictures. Hopefully I can get those up soon.

Halloween Take One: Ward Halloween Party
We had a really simple plan for costumes this year. Matthew has the cutest Batman pajamas, complete with a cape, so he was going to be Batman. Emma was going to be a cat, wearing all black clothes and cat ears that we already had. I bought some black material and sewed her a tail. They looked adorable...especially considering that we only spent a couple dollars and a few minutes getting the costumes ready.

This one makes me smile

Totally happy with his lollipop
The kids also wore these costumes for a little Halloween party at Jon's work.

Halloween Take 2: Trick or treating
The day before Halloween I ran to Old Navy because all their costumes were $2. I grabbed 4, and the kids wore 2 of them for trick or treating.

I LOVE this skeleton!

She's roaring in this picture


Jenny made him a bowtie to wear (the green thing)


This makes me smile too. She insisted on getting her picture with the headstone.

We spent the afternoon with Jon's family and went trick or treating with them. Emma was so excited. Matthew was just tired, so we put him in the stroller and headed out. After about 20 minutes Emma was done so we went back to Grandma's house and visited a little longer before heading home.
