Halloween 2010

I am a little behind in posting things so please forgive me. This year for Halloween I was a little on the cheap side. I didn't want to buy any costumes for the boys and I made Emree's. Emree was a little lady bug and I made her a little tutu. If you can remember, last year I made the boys' costumes and they dressed up as "Things". Lucky for me, I made them too big for last year and was able to squeeze the boys into them again this year. Their costumes were still a BIG HIT! We got so many comments about their blue hair and how cute they looked.

This year we took the boys to the medical clinic on base (this has become our Halloween tradition) and to the stake trunk-or-treat. The boys LOVED it, well of course, they got candy. Because Halloween was on Sunday we did not do any trick-or-treating but we did set up chairs and fun lights in the driveway and passed out candy before it got too cold. Sebastien had so much fun giving candy to other kids. He would run and watch for kids to come, then run back and get hand fulls of candy. He couldn't handle waiting for the kids so he would run over to them and put the candy in their bags. Manti was funny too, we would give him candy to give away and he had the attitude of "two for me, one for you"! I feel bad for the kids Manti was giving candy to.

I have been really bad about taking pictures lately and didn't get any of the boys by themselves but this is what we did get...

Our Family, Halloween 2010!
The "Things" with their friend "Spiderman"

Our little lady bug. She was checking out the tulle, trying to figure out what the heck was going on. She was funny because she kept grabbing, then pulling the tulle up towards her mouth.

Showing off her standing skills and the tutu. (It looks much better in person.)

This was the closet I could get to getting her to smile. I think she was freaked out by the tutu.

We had a very fun, happy Halloween. I now need to think about what I can make for the kids next year. I think it is more fun to make the costumes and see the kids running around then to buy them. Good thing I have a year to prepare because I will need it!
