We had another great Halloween this year. The girls look forward to it like Christmas, so the big day is always exciting! Matisyn decided to be a witch again this year, which made me very happy to get to use the adorable costume again. Grandma Barb made Emilyn a gorgeous Elsa Frozen princess costume to wear. She was over the moon happy about it, and looked so beautiful as Princess Elsa! The day started out with getting costumes on for school. I went and saw the girls in their school parade, and then helped out with the Halloween party in Emilyn's Kindergarten class. She is so cute and happy when I come to help. I felt bad that I couldn't help with Matisyn's. It was right during Lucas's nap, which he couldn't miss with the big night ahead.
That evening the girls got their costumes on again, and got ready for trick or treating around our neighborhood. Lucas got to put on his Lion costume. He looked beyond adorable. I am in love with that little lion! The girls were much better for the photo shoot than he was though! When Matt got home from work it was time for trick or treating! After a long day of "is it time yet?, is it time yet?, is it time yet?" I was ready too! Matt and I always take turns taking them out so we both get to watch them, and there is someone left to pass out candy. Lucas caught on to the all you have to do is knock and they give you candy thing really quick and became a fast fan of trick or treating. I kept trying to sneak treats out of his bucket that he is allergic to and trade him, but he was not happy about it! He would panic if he saw me near his candy. We had to be creative to keep his candy allergy safe for him.
After the kids had some time in our neighborhood, we packed up in the car and headed over to Grandma Barb's house. The kids trick or treated with their cousins, we had delicious soup, and lots of cotton candy.
Our annual HalloBunco party with friends. We had such a great time, as usual. My voice is always gone, and my cheeks hurt from laughing by the time we get home! It happened to be on my birthday again this year, and my cute friend Ashly brought a cupcake and a candle for me to blow out. I felt very loved with a loud happy birthday song! It was nice to have my birthday fall on a Saturday this year. We were able to have a date that day, and the kids stayed with a babysitter, and then we took them for a little slumber party at Grandma Barb's with the cousins for our party night. We dressed up as lightning and struck by lightning! Thanks to Megan and Kenzie for my crazy hair and make-up! Everyone thought I was wearing a wig!
