{spooktacular}

another halloween come and gone, what in the world? so yes yes i had every intention of having my kids costumes be something that went together, and was creative and cute-- all that jazz. So, i had the ideas, the search got ridiculous, the idea of sewing something was pushing me over the edge, the belly got even bigger, and i was really over it! Needless to say, they got to pick their costumes.... a kitty cat, and mummy it was! The most important thing was that they were excited about their getups:) They loved getting dressed up, in fact Z would wake me up in the morning costume in hand. She was all over getting her nose and face painted with whiskers, and would shake her little tail~ They had parties, candy, Halloween dinner at grandmas, some pretty rainy trick-or-treating, and then some more candy...so i think all in all it was a success! until next year.....

of course andrew had to go get something the night before halloween--and by then the choices are seriously limited--but it is a tradition:) and i must say that aliens sort of freak me out! we had to do a little scene reenactment from the movie {signs}

Such beautiful pictures! I love your leopard kitty and mummy who is missing some cutie teeth? And I love that your hubs got into the Halloween spirit as well! Jon does that and it always cracks the kiddos up! AND momma, you look stunning! The countdown is on! Oh how much fun! Looks like a fantastic Halloween! Next year you get to TRY to coordinate 3 costumes! :)
