Halloween Bash

Our annual Halloween party has come and gone. It just seems wrong to only wear a costume once, so we have a party every year to put the kids Halloween garb to good use. Luke was insistent on being Batman this year, upgraded to the one with muscles. I found a cute Peter Pan costume for Noah Nater, and little Ashley gets to put Katelyn’s pink octopus outfit to another years use. We lined all the kids up on the couch and flashed away with the cameras. The kids are getting older now and really had fun playing together this year. (well, Aiden didn’t really leave mom’s side, maybe next year) We provided service by inviting some elderly to enjoy the festivities too, oh I mean, our parents. It turned out to be another fun get-together, although it felt a little odd not to have Sarah, Mark and baby Ayla there. (Sarah- have you guys ever missed one?? I don't think so) But anyways, like I said, it was a lot of fun. Can't wait until next year.

Here is the lineup - Peter Pan, Cowardly Lion, Dorothy, Pink Octopus, Batman, Fireman and Caveman (Aidens hair cracks me up) . Check out Lukes muscles.
So cute!
Noah gave grandma a kiss/thimble when she arrived at the party.
Lisa (friend that I grew up with) – brave enough to tryout the apple/peanut butter/marshmallow teeth. We had a good laugh.We made tootsie-pop spiders and ghost.Now I can’t wait for Halloween.
