Halloween!




Ah, there's so many things to post and so little time. Sarah and Matthew got to go Trick-or-Treating at James's work on Halloween. It is always fun to go there and have the kids loved and admired. This year was even more fun because we got to show- off Joanna. After buying Sarah her princess costume for the year -- just what she wanted -- and adding the lovely shoes and crown for her birthday, she found the green dinosaur costume that Michael wore a couple of years ago and decided that she wanted to be a green dinosaur instead. When all was said and done, she decided to be a green dinosaur for James's work and a princess for the evening Trick-or-Treating. Michael was still Jango Fett and Matthew was still the boy riding the chicken. He was good at saying, "Giddy-up Chicken" as he would go from cubicle to cubicle. I was able to get Katherine's Mr./Mrs. Potato Head costume done in time. So she got to be that for Halloween. In the end there were 2 options each of eyes, nose, and mouth, and a pocket on the back to hold the parts that weren't in use.

James took the kids Trick-or-Treating with two families we are good friends with. He says it takes longer when you have 10 kids going to each door -- go figure. We still ended up with way too much candy.

Ths costumes look great I can't believe you made that Mr./Mrs potato head costume it looks so real. Michael would have fit in with all of our family. Jeff was Obi-Won, Dallin was Anakin, Isaac was Darth Baby,and I was a sith from the clone wars movie. So we had two Jedi and two sith. It was fun.
