Halloween is always a fun time of year. This year the kids are a little older and able to stay up a (tiny) bit longer so we were all very excited about dressing up and trick or treating. They had been talking about it for weeks and the big day had finally arrived. Pippa looked fabulous in her blue mermaid costume and Lincoln was very fierce in his pirate costume. Sto was dressed up as one of the Duck Dynasty family members and proudly wore his costume several times this season. He accompanied the kids to Pumpkin Night at school and also donned the beard for the annual RWJ Gala. Surprisingly, each time people were able to guess who he was trying to be. Who knew my husband could double as a red neck millionaire so well!?
I didn't want to be left out of the dressing up fun and luckily I have a tutu handy for such emergencies. We all went trick or treating around the neighborhood together and had a great time chatting with neighbors and gathering far too much candy. When we got home the kids were allowed to stuff their faces and then they left the rest of their loot out for the 'Switch Witch' and were thrilled to find a very nice gift waiting for them in the morning in place of their candy. (Seriously, whoever came up with that one deserves a prize! Brilliant!) We all had such fun that we are now counting down the days until next year!
