Happy Halloween!!
We had a very fun and crazy Halloween! Grace was so excited, I was in my room when she woke up that morning (Maggie was already up) and I hear her say (through the monitor) "It's Halloween!". She was very excited! We managed to make it through 2 school parties, a doctors appt (why I scheduled it on Halloween I will never understand!), trunk-or-treating at church and trick or treating in the neighborhood. I was so glad when everyone was finally in bed, especially after Maggie's inevitable sugar-induced, sleep-deprived meltdown 1 hour before her usual bed time! Enjoy!

Grace the cat, checking out all the cuties in her class! My camera died after I took about 3 pics, so I didn't get much of the party :(
Mrs. Smith was dressed as the old woman who swallowed a fly-it was so cute! She had all the things she swallowed in bags, hanging down in front.
Elliot, taking a break between festivities. Ray took him to his party at preschool, so I don't have any pictures of that, but he came home with a huge haul of candy!!
Maggie was so adorable in her little pumpkin outfit, and she TOTALLY got in to trunk or treating. She was so excited about all her candy in her little bucket. (Click on these pics to get a better shot of the little pumpkin :)
She was sitting on the curb checking out the spoils. She completely flipped when I tried to take her bag from her in the car! I was going to have her stay with me while Ray took Grace and Elliot around the neighborhood, but she was so not having that. Ray took her walking around the neighborhood and she had such a great time!

I really miss Papa Murphys!!!
I'm really really seeing the VanderLouw in Maggie in these pictures. Elliot's costume is totally awesome and Grace is the cutest kitty ever!!! (Eva is totally into cats right now and really wants one.)
Maggie is adorable! Piper was supposed to be a kitty, but she woke up very early that morning sick. Looks like you all had a great time.
Looks like we should have stuck around another week to get in on the fun Halloween events. What great times. Wish we had had blogs when you guys were little. Someday, somebody will invent a way to download all the old photos out of my brain, and then we can all enjoy those old memories.

I think it should be a rule that someone in the family has to be a pumkin for haloween. A truley classic haloween costume. One time I wore my sisters pumkin costume to work as a bank teller. It was a costume from when she was about 8 years old. More of a dress on her at the time, so for me it was a tight fitting shirt. But hilarious, you can imagine a pumkin floating as you approach the drive up window.
