Happy Halloween! Two weeks late is better late than never! Nick was Spider-Man and Chelsea was a princess. On the day before Halloween I thought it would be a good time for Nick to try on his costume to make sure it fit and we didn't have any surprises on the actual day. Well, he put the costume on at 8am that morning, and it didn't come off until he went to bed on Halloween night...that's about 36 hours!! We definitely got our $12 out of this one! Chelsea was really good about wearing hers too except her tiara kept falling off...it seemed a bit too small (even though the age was 4+...darn big head!!) These pictures are in reverse order (obvi. it's been a while since I have blogged and I am out of practice, but I am too tired to load them in again).
Checking out the night's bounty
SKITTLES!!! Nick's favorite. All of the neighbors were awesome. They know he's allergic to peanuts so some of them bought Skittles just for him (the big ones!!)
Making the rounds to see all of our doggie friends. This is Sadie (and her Mom, Susan). (Chelsea is crying because Sadie's Dad is at the door and for some reason Chelsea didn't like him that day, even though he's the nicest guy! Poor Chad.)
One of our neighbor's front "patches" (wish I could say it was ours)
Next doggie stop...Foxy. This dog is a riot. She actually gets up on her back legs and "waves" when she sees you coming. Nick was a champ with the mask, wore it the whole time despite a few near collisions with bushes, people, etc. because of the limited peripheral vision.
The kids did an awesome job saying, "Trick or Treat" and "Thank You"/"Take Ew". I think a lot of people were pleasantly surprised that they didn't need much prompting.
Ready to go. First doggie to meet us coming out the door...Daisy. She would have sat there forever posing for pictures. So cute. Spidey and Princess are pretty cute too!!!
