Buckle up, we’ve got picture overload here. A certain (and well-loved Grandma) slaved over these costumes, and I think she deserves a play-by-play of our super fun night. Besides, I had trouble deciding which pictures to post, so why not post them all? I like telling stories with pictures anyway, so consider yourself warned.
I am the anti-flash. Avoiding the flash does have it’s price, so I’m trying to be a big girl and embrace the grain in these photos. It adds to the spooky halloween spirit, right? ISO 3200 anyone? yeah baby!
We got started at sunset, and what a beautiful sunset it was. Drew and Brinley didn’t have any patience for a photo shoot. They wanted to get moving, there was candy to be had! This year the kids’ costumes were all about the sweets: a Dilly Bar from DQ and a Cupcake with a cherry on top!
Rowana-Banana-Split was happy, happy all night long!
The kids decided to taste each others costumes…mmmm, fleece!
Drew tried to bite of one of Brinley’s sprinkles, but I think his gap-tooth smile prevented him from actually sinking his teeth into one.
We can always count on one street in our neighborhood going all out for the kids, and this year was no exception.
Getting geared up for the next scary house. Brinley might be scarred for life. Nah.
Glowin’ Rowan. (the grain, oh the grain!)
Some politicians call this “redistribution of wealth.”
The kids call it the “best job evah.”
I love watching the magic of Halloween. Every door is as exciting as the first. You never know what you are gonna get!
Done yet Drew? Nope! Keep on truckin…
Brinley was done way before Drew was ready to give up.
Even after a short run through the neighborhood the kids had a real decent haul. Rowan called dibs on anything that crinkles.
Hey Drew time for bed…go get your jammies…no more candy…hey stop looking at me like that!
Check. It. Out. Full size candy bars. That is more exciting than a box of Nerds!
Rowan was a champ all night long. As you can see she has graduated into playing in the exersaucer… Such a big girl she is!
After the loot was all sorted an accounted for the kids couldn’t wait to pass out candy to other trick-or-treaters. We actually ran out of candy and started handing out glow sticks.
Ryan’s Goodwill masterpiece. Drew thought that Ryan was dressed up likeUncle Dan. Is it the curly hair or the necklace?
Thanks Grandma for making our Halloween the best ever!
What cute original costumes! Your Grandma’s got talent! Those are amazing! I love Halloween- It really is an adventure at each door. Glad you had a safe and fun Halloween!
Hey is that Uncle Dan?!
I’m asking like you said, but I HAVE to show your kids costumes to my mom, do you care??? I won’t until I get the okay. SO cute!!! We got NO trick or treaters at all so we were bummed…
I think you have won the costume award in my book. Your Grandma did awesome. I think the grain in the pictures are fine. I with you NO FLASH!!!
was it your mom that made those? does she hire out? so cute!
