We had a rainy dreary Halloween, but we did manage to have a big enough break in the rain to participate in the Community Halloween Parade and to Trick or Treat. Below are the kids dressed up in their Halloween Costumes.
Christopher wanted to be a firefighter, we got the jacket and backpack from a friend as a hand me down, and mommy purchased the helmet and nozzle. Daddy cut reflective strips for the helmet and mommy put reflective strips on his pants. Christopher wore his snow boots to complete the effect. I thought he looked pretty sharp and liked the way his helmet turned out.
Stephen had two choices for costumes this Halloween. First one was a Dinosaur and the Second was a Race Car Driver's Suit. Stephen of course decided to do his own thing. All he wanted to do for Halloween was go outside and push his lawnmower, so he ended up with a hammer and drill hanging off of his pants and pushing the lawnmower for the parade.
This year Christopher helped mommy and daddy design and carve the pumpkin he got from a school field trip. Both boys colored pumpkins this year for Halloween and we all went out at dusk to go Trick or Treating. The big thing for the night was every house we stopped at Stephen would try to take something from his goodie bag and give it to the person at the door.
