So, first things first....
For school, Kyle was a Mercenary (You'd have to know my 3 men, especially the father figure...it all stems from a couple of video/computer games)

Alec, after much changing of his mind, decided to be Iron Man....

Pumpking carving was fun, Kyle got to use a real knife for the first time, and both boys did all the carving and design of their pumpkins...they did a great job!

Then, on the 30th, we had a little "Test Run" to test lighting, fog machines, and make sure everything was working properly. We had a little Donut and Hot chocolate party for anyone who wanted to come....

Then, Halloween itself. Now, every year I get the question,"Do you dress up?" and when the answer is "NO!", I get asked, "Why not?". Well, it's really because I don't enjoy being dressed up, walking around trick or treating, and having to worry about being in costume AND running after my kids. I prefer to be comfy, in jeans and a hoodie, on halloween. It makes it more fun for me. This year, however, I decided to play around with my makeup, and came up with a rather dramatic look that got pretty good reviews. Cole actually compared me favorably with Elizabeth Taylor in "Cleopatra", and said if he'd known I was going to "dress up", He would have bought me some accessories. I had a lot of dark blue eyeliner, diamond sparkles, etc...and no, my skin is not really that pale, it's actually paler...I have blush on to give me some color!
My favorite pics...
Talia was the most gorgeous Little Red Riding Hood EVER!

I made that beaded necklace he's wearing...and I will NEVER work with hemp again..it was a HUGE pain...but it turned out cool.

Looks fun. I cannot believe all of your husbands Halloween garb- it looks great. Some year we'll have to come really check it out. On to Thanksgiving and Christmas!
we didn't get around to coming to your house this year and I was upset. Evan was being a grump and then the rain.
Great job! My family looks forward to it every year...and they were begging to go through a second time.
Wow how fun!! Your kids are so cute!! Your hubby definitely has a hobby :)
