Halloween Fun!

Halloween continues to be my favourite holiday! It is so much fun to decorate, create fun food, make cool costumes and of course, have an excuse to indulge in chocolate!

Parker and his friend Jett hit the youth dance the Friday night before dressed as ???? We're not sure but they looked really good. Wonder if the girls thought so. In case you're wondering, Parker's shoes are size 18 and Jett's are size 21.

Often, we have a Halloween party or two. This year we had a pumpkin carving party with a few friends. The pumpkins turned out great!

Sara and two of her friends dressed up as the Three Blind Mice. Sara got an award that day and went up to receive it dressed as a mouse. Pretty funny!

Hannah had planned out her costume for weeks... She had convinced her cousin Owen to go as Prince William and she would be Kate - one of her favourite people. We found her the perfect dress, a coat, the shoes and even a fascinator. That picture is yet to be taken because William had to go without his princess. In the middle of the night before Halloween, she woke up so sick and missed the whole day. For a 9 year old, does it get much worse? I don't think so. My heart broke for her. So, there will be a Halloween party coming up. TBA At one point when she woke up, she rolled over on the couch and asked me, "What did Matt dress up as today?" I answered that he didn't. "Lame - o" was her response before she rolled over and fell back asleep. So, maybe we'll have to make him dress up for the party. Suggestions???

The candy haul was therefore a little smaller this year, but have no fear, we all still managed to get an adequate amount of chocolate. :)
