Halloween is not just one night when you are 3 and 4!

Growing up, I remember Halloween being just one night...one night to dress up and one night with lots and lots of candy! Halloween this year for the boyz seemed to be one party after another! The first Halloween party was at our favorite place, Moving and Grooving. They went with their buddy Bryce and spent an hour playing, frosting cookies, making crafts, and walking through the haunted house! When I went to pick them up Connor told me that he had to have the lights out when walking through....I went through it and I can see why he wanted them on!!!

Here are the boyz in one of their costumes - Connor was Batman Pirate (Put on a batman costume and a pirate sword and there you have it - its the newest super hero!) Cooper on the other hand was of course Spiderman making a pirate face!!!

The next week we were off to Bryce's house for another party! This is Brandi's favorite holiday and she goes all out(she seriously needs to consider being a party planner she is that good). She had all sorts of spooky treats for the kids (and adults) and lots of games!!


The party started off by putting halloween stickers all over their individual pails...which they would soon start to fill with prizes from their games! Cooper, who is usually not one for art projects, was the last one at the table and put every last sticker on that pail - Way to go Coop!

The kids had a great time playing all the creative games that Brandi had planned! It is always so much fun to see your kids enjoying their time with their buddies - and Bryce is definitely their bud!

The night that we came home from the party both kids came down with a fever which led to Hand, Foot, and Mouth.....which kept us away from our squadron trick or treating and trick or treating halloween night! The kids were upset and what was even more upsetting is that they had been saving their ultimate halloween costumes that Grandma and Grandpa had given them for halloween night! Their Grandparents had surprised the kids with costumes that they knew that they would like......

How could you tell these sweet faces that they couldn't go trick or treating! We let them go to a couple of houses on the block and then called it evening! It was still a lot of fun though and the kids didn't seem to mind that they weren't out very long...they still got tons of candy!

Thank you Grandma and Grandpa for our sweet costumes! They were the best ones out there!!!
