Amist of our chaos we still manage to get something in for the kids.
I guess as the boys get older they know what they want. In previous years, we just make some cute cool cut outs from a book that came with the tools but this year the boys already knew what they wanted. So we scoured the web and printed the designs. Brennan wanted a ghost and Clayton wanted a Cyclops. Cayleigh: she just wants to have fun, and boy did she have fun.
She's so ready!

Onto the older crew....more intricate details.
Brotherly love..for 2 minutes...
The end result...just exactly what they wanted....
Moving onto Trick or Treat. Originally we were going to trick or treat at our usual spot but since we are going to move to a new neighborhood, what other best way to meet our neighbors than Trick or Treat so everyone can come out in front of their houses (or have five feet of snow in front of our house, but this is better). It was interesting though because I was actually shutting the water from the outside faucets and saw there was a bunch of children in costumes parading around the common area in the park and asked an old lady what's going on. She told me that they're having a costume parade and afterward go trick or treating around the neighborhood. I quickly called the family to come over. They missed the parade but had a lot of fun running with other kids trick or treating around our new neighbors! They all seem to be really nice.
See the way she holds the bucket already....bad sign!
At the end of night, they kids got full buckets of candy and everyone's happy!
