Halloween 2011

Halloween was SO much fun this year! Luke was Francesco from Cars 2, Evan was a fire fighter and Kate was a cow. Very cute. The boys took FOREVER to decide on costumes this year. Originally I had planned on making their costumes, but they couldn't make up their minds and it was just too late for me to try and throw something together. That and I just couldn't figure out how to make a centipede costume! Really, Luke?
My cousin, Blair had us (and my friend Carrie and her girls) over for a Halloween lunch and play date. She had the kids make mummy pizzas. Again, so cute. There were six kids 4 and under and all played wonderfully together. We had such a fun time. As usual.
Halloween night we headed over to J's sister's house for chili and trick-or-treating. The evening was beautiful. The air was crisp, but not cold or raining. Thank goodness. Luke and Evan were an absolute riot this year. Luke wanted to keep up with Lil and her friends and Ev gained more and more independence as the night went on. By the end of the evening he was knocking on the doors, holding his bag open, saying "trick or treat" and "thank you" and then moved on to the next house. : ). Kate was her usual laid back self and just rode in the stroller all night. Not one fuss out of her. Such a doll. Happy Halloween . . .

Oh and seriously . . . check out the cool costumes my sis-in-law made. Ah-mazing!
