A Storm Trooper, A Cowgirl. Mr. Invisible. An Indian Princess.
Popeye and Olive Oil.
I got Ron to dress up for a Halloween party which always makes me happy.
Mason was very adamant about being "Mr. Invisible" this year. I wasn't too thrilled about the skin tight cheesy costume but I sure like making him happy. He was so cute when it came in the mail he put it on (which was not easy) and immediately asked "Can you see me?!" I love how fun this kid is.
Halloween night we broke tradition and went to my friend Erin's home for dinner and trick or treating. (I still feel bad about ditching my mom) It was quite the success! I can't believe all the yummy candy my kids got.
Callie was a "Pea-hawk" and a Cowgirl for Halloween. No matter how many times I corrected her she just kept calling it a peahawk, so I eventually stopped correcting her. I got together with Maryann and made the tutu and added peacock feathers. It was a little tricky getting the feathers to stay where I wanted them. But I think it turned out pretty cute. I wish we got better pics of Callie and Kendalyn in their matching costumes, so cute. She actually only wore this costume for an hour or so and not on Halloween. We learned really fast that it was a difficult costume to transport. Not car friendly. LOL At our ward trunk or treat she wanted to be a cowgirl (after my suggestion... ). So we stuck with that for Halloween too. Mason was so funny when he found out we were changing her costume he looked confused and said "But... you spent so much time on her peacock costume?.." True Mason. True. I almost said "Welcome to parenthood"
April's costume was supposed to be a gumball machine. I borrowed it from Maryann and sadly waited too long before trying it on her... it did NOT fit. So 2 days prior to Halloween I was scrambling. My friend had lent me a Princess costume but it was a little long and April was tripping on it too much. Since Callie was being a Cowgirl I thought it would be cute to have April be an Indian Princess. So I put this costume together the day before Halloween and I think it turned out pretty cute.
We switched to a cheerleader on actual Halloween because once again tutu's are not car-seat friendly.
