Trick or Treat

Halloween went a little smoother this year.  Thank goodness.  Jared was home for all festivities...yeah!

FHE pumpkin carving.  We opted to get small pumpkins.  We got one big one too, but it started to rot so we just did the small ones...easy. Rees and Tagg were a team - don't ask what Rees is wearing he got into the costumes and he thinks he's cool.

Luke and Darin were a team. 

Lydia scooted around everywhere. 


Tagg and Rees' design...they were calling it the pirate monkey.


Luke and Darin's shifty eye pumpkin.



  This year I had Darin's costume ready to go, Tagg was easy, Rees and Luke I told them if they wanted to go trick or treating then they had to come up with a costume with what we had. 

Darin - Mace Windu - and yes the lightsaber is purple

Luke wanted to be a hobo.  When he asked what he should wear I started listing things like, old beanie, holy pants, old shirt and then realized that was pretty much what he was already wearing.  How sad is that.  He decided to go as a ninja. 


Rees - Secret Service Agent - he did this on his own, even the pipe cleaner ear piece!

Tagg didn't want to dress up, but once I told him that he couldn't get candy unless he did, he decided to go with the easy on and off Thomas the Train from the year before.  Done.

Lydia - a cute doggy
I refrained from buying her a cute princess, or girly costume.  She only wore her costume for some quick pictures, she didn't go trick or treating.  This is what we had...I just tied pink bows on it to make it more girly. :)  




The boys voted Jared to take them trick or treating.  Awesome!  Lydia and mom hung out at home passing out candy.  It was a more relaxed year. 

The boys had fun, they got lots of candy, and life was good.  Happy Halloween!

I am totally impressed with Rees' costume! Way to think outside the box. The other boys and Lydia are such cuties! Love that you put pink bows on the puppy costume. I did that with a Skunk costume on Savannah 2 years ago.
