The boys have a story book parade at school. Wally's class read a story about a ninja together, so he went in his old ninja costume that day.
Will wore his Darth Vader costume. Minus the mask.
Wally's class. He is barley peeking out on the left hand side. He has an awesome teacher!
Walker was a good boy during the parade, even though it was cold.
Our pumpkin patch finds on the porch.
Our Mr. Skeleton pillow got to hang out for a couple of weeks.
Walker was in the children's parade with all the kids in the child care at the health club. He got ready with a little face paint while I was in yoga class. We didn't realize the parade was going on, so he had no costume.
We (I) carved four pumpkins. Carving pumpkins can be a lot of work when those tiny little knives keep breaking! Wally did do a lot of his on his own.
Our neighbors invited us to go trick or treating with them this year. Several different neighbors started renting hay rides to drive them around because the houses are pretty far apart. We were lucky enough to be invited to go with two different groups!
The families load up on the trailer and make their way around all the houses. The kids jump on and off to gather their candy.
Our transportation.
Our neighbors are also nice enough to provide everyone with pizza on a short break.
Supervision and traffic control was provided by the fathers. The moms got to ride.
The kids got far, far, tooooo much candy! I have never seen such a haul! They each got at least six full size candy bars, four kings size, an entire bag of licorice, and bags, and bags of chips! It was an insane amount of junk! Whenever I would find candy on the floor, or sitting around anywhere, I just threw it away.
Here is Wally with just a fraction on his loot, after they all came home and ripped their warm clothes and costumes off. I hid a garbage bag of candy I collected in the closet after they kids had to empty their sacks to fit more on the hayride.
