halloween.

Halloween was a blast this year!  With both kids finally old enough to really get it.  Love it!  EK was dang determined to be Minnie Mouse.  I tried very hard and for a very long time to get her to be a cupcake, since I bought her the most adorable cupcake costume for super cheap on clearance last Halloween.  And we call her Emma Cupcake.  And every single two year old girl is Minnie for Halloween.  But she is definitely head strong, maybe even more so than her mama, so she won the battle.  I will admit she made the cutest Minnie Mouse ever, so I guess it will be okay.  

Checking out her shoes.

 Holding the treat bag I made her that is bigger than her :)

Ans as for P, he wanted to be a pirate.  Easy peasy since he just had a pirate birthday party at which he wore a perfectly adorable (and expensive) pirate costume.  Works for me!

Aaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrgggggggghhhhhhh!!!!

Jake sword with a map.  He loves that sword!

Sweet, sweet Minnie.

Wow!  Did I actually get a pic of both of them????

They love their daddy.  Melts my heart.

EK got the hang of trick-or-treating pretty quick.  P still doesn't love it.  He'd rather stay at the house and pass out candy with granddaddy.

EK loved watching the other kids.  "Who are they, daddy?"  "What is that, daddy?"  Too, too sweet.

EK went to about 10 more houses than P.  She loved every second of trick-or-treating.  She even rang our own doorbell to get candy from grandaddy.

It was a fantastic Halloween with our family.  I love our traditions that we have created!  It only gets better from here.
