Halloween Fun

We had a fantastic Halloween this year. The weather was perfect, the trick-or-treaters were happy and the candy was mm-mm good! Jaysie and Kate were cute witches and Teegan decided to be a football player at the last minute. We planned on him being Spiderman (hence the blue and red hair coloring). The football jersey and pads were a birthday present from Grandma M and he just couldn't resist wearing them.

Jaysie and I made the cute little tutus and then made sure to top it off with the fake glow in the dark eyelashes. The eyelashes have seemed to become a yearly Halloween tradition with her....in fact she told me that she could wear them everyday and they wouldn't even bug her. I can only picture some 70 year old lady with leathery skin, gobs of makeup and uneven fake eyelashes when she says things like that. Let's hope not....

I wish you could've seen Kate crawling around in that tutu. It was the cutest thing ever to see that little bum up in the air with all the foo foo swaying back and forth with each movement. It wasn't a real crawling friendly costume, but that's the sacrifice you make for cuteness! (If that's even a word)

Whenever I see a little girl in a witch costume it reminds me of a funny story. My friend's little girl was a witch one year. She was about 2-3 years old at the time and had a little trouble pronouncing her "W's". So whenever there was a word with a "w" in it, she would replace it with a "b" sound. When she'd get asked what she was going to be for Halloween she'd say, "I'm gonna be a Hallobeen @#$itch." Sorry for the crudeness, but that's funny!! I always have to give a little chuckle under my breath each time a "Halloween Witch" goes by.

Every year I thinkg
