Trick or Treating!

This year we went Trick or Treating in my moms neighborhood. Cori and Lexi joined us and we had a total blast. We got huge candybars and way more candy than can be consumed in a month. so it may just last us till next year!

Will was the Oogie Boogie man, and Emery was Jack Skellington from the Nightmare before Christmas. My kids love that show for no reason I am capable of mustering up. So we will just leave it at that. Wills costume was fun to make. I had so much fun with the details from the bugs on the costume to the balloons to stuff him with. Emery we got to paint his hair and face, and by the time we finished he could have played Jack in the movie himself. He wasn't too fond of the paint, but he looked amazing! This year was a great Halloween year, Boo! Hee, Heee, He He!

Halloween party of 2009.

This was the ultimate year for costumes! We went as "The Nightmare Before Christmas"! Emery was born on December 25th. So instead of getting his birthday as close to Christmas as possible, we went with what he loves most. And that is Halloween! One of his favorite movies is "The Nightmare Before Christmas" so we went with the theme. Emery was the Pumpkin King himself , Jack, and William was the 'Oogie Boogie' man. To make sure the theme continued I myself was Sally, and let me tell you that the hair was just gross. I was finding red in my food and my nose, I know gross! Paul was the evil doctor scientist, and Annie was the ghost puppy 'Zero' I had a complete blast making, yes you heard me making all these costumes. It took its own sweet time, but its what I love. Sewing is my passion. especially creating something out of my head. I couldn't have done it without the help of my family. My dad even chipped his lab coat and gloves in! Even Pauls grandma got in on the action and came dressed in her nightgown and curlers, ready for bed! That is how I would go if I could, Comfy! Hope everyone had a safe and Happy Halloween! Oh and have to mention that we got the "Best Costume" award! Awesome!

"Humperdink! Humperdink! Humperdink!" "Have fun storming the castle!" Pauls mom and dad decided to dress up as the old couple off of Princess Bride, and Jordan, Becca and Cadence were the snoopy crew. Nikki and Eric were cards representing a Peanuckle hand (sorry about spelling) Their kids dressed up as a ninja, a devil girl, and an angel. Cute costumes Everybody!

And the fun kept coming, we played games, and ate yummy creepy food. The kids recieved all sorts of prizes. of course the costumes got warm, and they had to be taken off, but it was a great party, and so much fun!
