Halloween (belated!)

Finally getting around to posting about our Halloween this year! We did our usual around-the-block trick or treat, which is enough to fill buckets and not get too tired out. This year we had a Jedi and Chewbacca. Would you expect anything less from this Star Wars household?

Pumpkin carving is one of our favorite Halloween things. Addie did her own this year, a bat. :)

Gage helped put seeds in the bowl for Mommy to roast, and then...

 

He decorated his own pumpkin with little lite-brite looking thingys.

 

I would kiss this Wookie!

Addie - 5 years
Gage - 2 years

The whole crew. Nolan was our little Yoda, and Em was our princess. Not quite Leia, but we will take it. :)

It was a good thing we had this Jedi with us to keep away Halloween spookies!

Gage was our little helper and told us when there were no cars so we could cross the street, and pointing out which houses had "Lights on, Dada!" so we could be sure they were home. :)

Can't wait until next year to see what fun costumes they will come up with. Addie is already making plans...

Super Cousins!

Happy Halloween! We love this time of year and we are always ready to decorate our house, bake fun Halloween cookies, carve pumpkins, and of course dress the kids up and go trick-or-treating. This year Addie, Gage, and Emily dressed as our own little family of Supers. All the fam came over to our house again this year and we had some yummy chili and cornbread before trick-or-treating around the block.

Love this shirt! We watch that movie almost daily this time of year!

Carving pumpkins! Addie wouldn't let us touch her little pumpkin, so it's still in the kitchen. We are going through an "I love everything, we need to keep it forever phase." I really hope we are over it soon.

"Master pumpkin carver, Cameron is."

The Super Cousins!
This was about the only way we could get a picture of all 3 of them dressed up! We ordered the capes from this shop on Etsy. Addie plays superhero all the time, so I love that we will get years of use from these.

Super Addie!

Super Gage!
He was a proper little superhero and kept his mask on most of the night. Love my little man so much!

This was Emily's 1st "real" trick or treat. She would follow Addie to the door, and as soon as someone would answer she would back away slowly and then crouch down in defense mode. It was priceless. Needless to say, she got tons of candy anyway for being so darn cute. Addie is old hat at the ripe old age of 4, and had no problem ringing doorbells, saying "Trick or Treat!" and "Thank you!"

Hope you all had a sugar filled Halloween, and Happy November!
