Trick or Treat!

We had a fun night of trick or treating with friends tonight and our usual pot of chili/cornbread. One thing I love about living in military housing is that everyone sits outside and visits during trick or treating, but this year it was windy and cold!! The festival was also going on, so it wasn't the best night for trick or treating but we had a good time. I'm about to attempt kitchen clean up but here are a few pics for the grandma's

..Val being her obvious ballerina (had to put a sweater on though.. too cold) and Ellie being the bee that Val was last year. The bee costume was handed down to us from my Aunt Janel! (thanks! as you can see.. it got two years of use!) :) ... although Ellie was *screaming* when she put it on for the first 10 minutes or so... but we bribed her with a sucker.

The girls with Kylan (Buzz Lightyear!) I let the girls sponge paint/finger paint plain orange gift bags last week.. hence the 'smears'

Can't forget baby Westin and his insanely gorgeous mother, Lovie!Ellie ran down the street for awhile before finally giving into the wagon
getting the goods from our neighbor and friend Blake!

Thanks for posting the photos so quickly. I know that was a bit of work to do, but Grandmas DO appreciate it!!!!! They are adorable in those costumes.

Westin seems so big for only a few weeks old!!!

Awwwww they look so Cute!

Benjamin screamed for the first ten minutes with his costume too. I begged and peaded with hugs and kisses and chaseing him around.... then he broke. LOL
But we did have to pick up his hat between every house and put it back on him at the next house. :)

Happy Halloween!
