Super Halloween!!!

We had the best Halloween this weekend. My parents came down to visit and my kids were in heaven. They took Caleb home so I could work on potty training Joshua, so now I am in heaven. I still miss the little booger, but it is definitely easier to potty train with only one little guy running around.

On Friday Benjamin was supposed to dress as what he wants to be when he grows up. He wants to be an astronaut and since we couldn't go buy an astronaut suit, he decided to go as an astronaut who is working in the lab for the day. I think he really liked the idea and really liked his NASA special entrance name tag I made him.

For Halloween the kids decided they wanted to dress up as everyone's favorite plumbers, Mario and Luigi. So naturally we dressed Joshua up as Toadstool.

I searched and searched for Benny some overalls in his size, but couldn't find any anywhere. SO I settled for store bought costumes. They were pretty cute wearing those mustaches. I made Joshua's costume and he actually wore the hat the whole night.



We sat up our dancing and singing skeleton in front of the van for Trunk or Treating at the church and he was a big hit. Some of the little kids wouldn't even come over to our car.

My favorite costume had to be Frankenstein. This guy is already almost 7 foot tall and then he still added the platforms to the bottom of his shoes and he was really freaky. His wife went as a Ghost buster.

I dressed up as a witch and Chris dressed up as a pimp. One of the ladies at church said they were disappointed that I didn't come as a Hoe. HAHAHA! I also had to make two dozen cupcakes for the kids cake walk. I have to brag that my brains and eyeballs disappeared first.




Sunday I made meatloaf brains and then my parents headed home. Chris had to hit the books again, so me and Josh and Benny decided to do a little trick or treating. Since they got a huge bag of candy form the church carnival, we decided to only hit the houses that had really cool decorations. Every time I would pull up to a really scary house I would ask Benny if he was sure he wanted to go to this one, and he would say,"Yeah, I'm not scared of anything".

We had a lot of fun and are so glad Grandma and Grandpa finally made it down this way. I am looking forward to seeing my little Caleb this weekend.
