Halloween

Trick or Treat?

The making of a ninja turtle. So like so many things I thought a month ago, sure no problem I'll make a ninja turtle costume for Austin complete with his list of accessories. Well like so many times before the day before Halloween I was frantically searching for the glue gun because I can glue faster than I can sew. But after staying up with a fever of well over 100 degrees I did as promised and delivered the ninja turtle costume...and Austin was happy.

Jackson, like always was less demanding. He simply within 15 seconds of costume shopping had decided on Darthvader. A character with which he shares not one recognizable

personality trait. It was a hoot to see Darthvader getting onto the school bus. Jackson was cute trick or treating as he was yelling back to everyone as he darted away with his candy "Thanks, Happy Trick or Treating!"

Hannah and Sierra were Cinderella and Snow White. Hannah, always the princess was quite enamored with her huge dress that lit up. Sierra was fine with it as long as it did not slow her down. They lasted about 20 minutes into Trick or Treating before Todd (more than happy to volunteer) took them home and put them to bed (in their dresses.) It was fine as those things happen here frequently but Hannah woke up in the middle of the night freaking out as her dress lights up and it looked like a disco in the room as her dressed sparkled in the darkness, she may never wear lace again!
