Halloween 2012

This is how they left for school.

I really wanted Zach to have this shirt, but Walmart decided it was on the recall list when I brought it up to buy it. It makes me laugh every time I read it. :-)

Our school doesn't allow costumes and instead makes it "black & orange" day.

It is kind of a bummer. I remember that being something to look forward to during the school year.

And then that night they transformed into a slinky clown and Ironhide from Transformers.

The kids were excited to get out. Zach was mostly concerned with getting to the other loop to see his friends Brady & Christian.

Even Newman came out with his costume. :-)

He would't wear his hood.

We finally got to the other loop where Zach got to see Brady and Elissa & her friend Olivia.

Elissa left us and went on with Olivia. Zach then was on a mission to find Christian.

He found Christian and was then done with trick-or-treating. Funny guy. Darin took him home and I went to pick up Elissa.

Elissa wanted to trick-or-treat her way home.

She was so funny. She would go up to the door and have a conversation with the people. They all loved her costume and I would hear, "How adorable! So cute! I love the colors! So original!" She really enjoyed that. Then she would say as she left, "Scares and Ghouls!" I asked her what this meant and she said, "They think I'm cute when I say it." She was in her element. :-)

Our last trick-or-treat of the evening.

It was a FUN evening! Warm and dry!

We'll have to coordinate with their friends better next year.

Happy Halloween!
