Happy Halloween!!

Happy Halloween to all! We have so much candy here, we could all be on a sugar high for months. We went to a Trunk or Treat at the park on Thursday night, Trick-or-Treating at a retirement home with our MOMS Club on Friday, and of course real Trick-or-Treating last night (they changed Halloween to Saturday here, I guess having it on Sunday would be sac-religious or something)! While we didn't need all the candy, I just couldn't resist the opportunity to dress the kids up in their cute little costumes. Gavin just LOVES being the "package man," and I have to admit his costume was pretty unique. I transformed a box into his trick-or-treat bag, and that really topped off his costume! He got so many comments on his outfit, although when people referred to him as a UPS man, he had no idea who they were talking about. He is simply a "package man," and that is that.

I just had to have Lexi be a cowgirl since she loves her boots and horses so much. And her little "YEEEE-HAW" is just as cute as can be. She also loves Tigger, so I had her wear Gavin's old costume a couple of times too. She likes to get our Tigger toy out and bounce with him...so sweet.

While Gavin has got this getting candy thing down pat, Lexi was a little overwhelmed. She buried her head in either my shoulder or Greg's most of the time. Gavin went right up to even the creepy houses (a couple of houses in our neighborhood go all out decorating). We went trick-or-treating with our neighbors Will and Molly (both very close in age to Gavin and Lexi), and Gavin's bestie Presley, and her brother Kason also joined us.

These two were cracking me up! They were so loud and obnoxious, we were joking that they were acting like a couple of drunk college buddies!

Gavin's pumpkin is the smiley face..he did a lot of it himself with the help of Daddy! Lexi's is the kitty-cat, she did a good job, huh?  I think we know which one is Greg's, and mine is supposed to be an owl sitting on a tree branch, but I messed up on his eyes!
