HAPPY HALLOWEEN

We love Halloween at our house. I think the reason is that it's one of the few holidays that doesn't have a "TRUE MEANING" that you have to remind the kids of. I'm sure there's one out there, but for the most part it's all about the fun, costumes and candy. Our holiday started out with a costume parade at the girls school and a carnival on Friday night (all I can say is THANK HEAVEN that is over!).

This is Shelby's teacher and her husband at the costume parade. How cute are they????? We absolutely love both of them. The school custodian put this out. I couldn't believe how many kids actually fell for it. Their little faces were hilarious as they walked by!!

Saturday, we started our celebrations by going to a Trunk or Treat. If you've never been to one, it's where everyone meets in a parking lot and brings candy. The kids walk from car to car picking up their candy. You get TONS in a LITTLE bit of time!!!! NICE!!! Then we went home and Chris walked around our neighborhood with them, while I stayed at home to pass out candy. We had a whopping 10 kids show up!!! Half of them were TERRIFIED of the 6ft. animated monster on my front porch. HA! (For the life of me, I can't get this stupid thing to rotate. Sorry. You're just going to have to turn your head!)

We got several comments on being "Like the Incredibles" because all of the kids were dressed as Super Heros. I thought it was kind of funny.

Don't even ask how long it took to curl her hair. Let's just say it took 3 times as long as the curls actually held!!

She really is quite a super little girl!!

She's definitely my feisty one! This was as girly as she was willing to go. haha

So cute!

At one point Preston closed a door that I honestly didn't think he had the strength to close and I said, "Good job I didn't think you could do that by yourself" he said, "Yeah, it's cause my costume has big muscles" hahahahaha Here he's straining to show the muscles on his costume.
