Halloween Fun

Uncle Brian L is in town and carved this awesome mustache themed pumpkin with the kids on Wednesday night.  Andy and I went to go see Gravity.  We never go to movies, but this one is very worth seeing.  It is an intense action film and the cinematography is stunning. Anyway, I digress.  The kids had a great time with him doing the pumpkin and the seeds came out really well.

This year's costumes were a little bit more original than in the past.  Natalie was a minion.  Matthew was supposed to be a minion, but he didn't want to be one.  We had already ordered overalls for him in size 4T, but they worked just fine as capri pants on Natalie.  We found awesome goggles on Amazon and a yellow ski hat with pipe cleaners going through it to be hair.  Meagan was Flo from Progressive.  She cameup with the idea and I loved it.  The most important things for Flo are an apron and bright red lipstick.  Matthew was a rocket ship.  I had bought it a few years ago after Halloween just to play in, but he loved it.  We got a ton of compliments on all three kids' costumes. 




These are some of our neighbors that we have celebrated Halloween with for quite awhile.  I think if I looked, I could find some from when they were toddlers. 
We didn't trick or treat terribly long, but we have more than enough candy.  For the first time in forever, I overbought candy.  Usually my mom (who hangs out at our house to pass out candy) runs out after an hour or so, but we still have way too much. 
Brian is still here until tomorrow morning.  We are enjoying the fantastic November 1st weather of 82.  I am thinking a visit to Kerbey Lane is in order, preferably sitting outside.
