I always have a vision for the kids' Halloween costumes, like all dressing up like characters from a movie, cowboys and indians, or a fun theme, but to my disapointment eveyone wants to pick their own costumes. And ususally I don't love what they chose! It is one of those things that I want to control, But I am working letting go....a little.
This year Abby dressed up like a nerd with her friend Myndi.
Gavin chose this Army costume. I tried so hard to get him to wear real camo, but this costume was much better......mmmm.
Amy found this dress at Wal-mart. It took some thinking but we finally decieded that she would be a country western singer!
We had a bunch of old costumes that we could choose from for Sarah, but when we went downstairs to get them I realized that Maggie had taken ALL of them to try on for her baby. Thank goodness for great friends. I called Priscilla and she had this cute pumpkin costume that would fit Sarah.
We went Trunk-or-Treating up at the town building, and then took the little girls to a few more houses, while the big kids went with their friends all around town. We had TONS of candy!
Once again I didn't think that Sarah would even care about going Trick-or-Treating but she was so cute. She wanted to go to every door with Amy and Hadlee.
