So I know this post is very outdated, but life has been crazy. I just wanted to catch everyone up on our "normal" ? life over the past month.
Halloween started out with Zehn's pumpkin slowly dying (just one of the casualties in our home this month) We had 4 other pumpkins from the pumpkin patch, but never got around to doing anything with them due to the chaos of the month. We kept Mr. Pumpkin face as long as we could, then he made the sad trip to the garbage.
The festivities started out with Zehn, who refused to commit to a Halloween costume. He just plain was not interested. We discussed it many times and looked through some at the stores, he just did not care to dress up. Well, after I sent him to school (costumeless) for the parade, I panicked, fearing once he showed up and was the only kid without a costume he would be upset. I grabbed a cowboy hat and ran it to the school only to find him happily holding the sign in front of his classroom. He didn't seem to notice or care that he was the only one not in costume. I begged him to at least wear the cowboy hat, and he finally complied.
Next, it was off to Sasha's school where she was dressed as Pippy Longstocking. She was very excited, as you can see here about the pumpkins and just being at school with her "friends" as she is every day.
Stage 2 of Halloween was at Tiff's house. We had a great halloween party and after searching the boxes, found both Sasha and Zehn's old costumes from last year. At least mom was satisfied. Again, I don't think either one of them cared at all. Zehn was a muscle man, Sasha a spider.
Jaden and Zehn getting ready for trick or treating. Isn't her cowgirl costume cute. I hear that Tiff had some issues with her not wanting to wear it either. What's wrong with kids and Halloween now days? They sure did look cute though.
My costume for everything that requires a costume for the past 6 years (toned down a bit this year) a wig and boa. Can never go wrong.
Back from Trick-or-Treating and Sasha found Kelly's wig. She apparently was not done dressing up for the night and thought she was some hot stuff. Then she decided to share the wig with her mom......
Boo Ya - Mom working the new kickboxing skills with the wig. There really is nothing that can even be said about this photo except, WOW.
So, that was our Halloween. It was fun and I think the kids had a great time. The only exception would be when a "statue" on one of the porches came alive behind Sasha and scared the *beep* out of her. The rest of the night she kept pointing at anything dressed in black and saying "HOLY MOLY". All in all, it was a success. Good Times
