It is not good that the only camera we have is a camera that is Blakely's. Consequently, it is hard to get pictures taken and posts posted.
I love trunk or treats, but at the same time it is hard to dress the kids up twice for trunk or treat and then for school. When Halloween rolled around we went to the dress up box to see what we could find. I had bought costumes for the boys on Halloween clearance last year, which they have worn quite a bit through out the year. So thankfully, they wore the costumes for Halloween. Garret was a dragon from "How to Train your Dragon." Then the girls told him he couldn't wear his mask and he became HALF BOY HALF DRAGON. He still looked liked a dragon with a boy's head never the less.
Brady became Buzz Lightyear. He is starting to outgrow Toy Story. He wore the Buzz costume with a little hesitation. He loves dressing up for any occasion. He loved the Halloween party as he got to play games and win prizes.
Once the kids hit a certain age they come up with different costumes. Katelyn and her two good friends at school decided to become Cinderella and the two evil step sisters. Bekha was Cinderella, Emily and Katelyn were the evil stepsisters, and Mrs. Harman, Bekha's helper was the evil step mother. I am sure they look cute, but did not get to see them because they all dressed up during school.
Blakely really didn't dress up because she had a football game that she played at. She decided that she would be a juvenile delinquent and dress up as herself. I don't think she mainded too much not dressing up because she loves to go and hang out with her friends. We went after the ward party to pick her up from the football game. This a whole new ballgame for us with Blakely now in high school.
