LET THE WILD RUMPUS BEGIN!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN

Our fun Halloween experiance started last Saturday, when we decorated cookies with my friend Melanie and her family, but sadly there were no pics taken, but a good time had by all. Next on Tuesday, we had some med residency friends over to carve pumpkins and eat some taco soup.

This is Heidi and Clara. Heidi is such a trooper and came without her husband. I know all of us will have to take a turn with this, but Heidi does it so well. I am sure I will not make it look so easy. But I know both her and Mandy will be there to help me through it. (I don't know how I didn't get any pics of Mandy.)

The Tatoos went on on Thursday morning. The kids really dug them. And since Noah didn't get to wear his costume to school, I was glad he had the fun tatoo and of course his Halloween shirt.

(obviously the Halloween shirt is not featured here:) )

Micah with her wig...it was the only pic I got, cuz "it was too itchy."

Thursday night was the Trunk or Treat! John was able to make it and help the kids walk around while I handed out treats!

This is cute little Tatum dressed up as Dorthy.

The kids seriously liked handing out the treats more than getting them. Go figure!

When John was driving the kids home, Deeken got out 3 suckers, John didn't throw them away. The next morning while I was upstairs helping Josie, Deeken found them and started devouring them.

I think his sucker total by the end of Halloween day was 8. ONLY on Halloween!

This is my beautiful mermaid. She did get to dress up for school, and even had a parade like in the good old days. She was being very shy and wouldn't sing any of the songs!

She was the best BIGsister, when Deeken crashed her class Halloween party! She loves that little guy. It made me so proud!

Noah doin' his thing at his Halloween party. I was so lucky to get to go. Thank Heavens for kind VT companions!

I adore this little monkey and this pic of him too.

3 out of 4 ain't bad. These are the pumpkins they carved. Technically John carved Micah's and I carved Deeken's, but it looks like he could have carved it! We were very proud of Noah for doing his all by himself!

Yuck, ugly pic of me, but the only one I got. I'm such a parent pleaser.

Noah and his buddy Atticus.

The Farr an Dame kids. (That is Cozy on the end)

Walking to the apartment clubhouse to score BIG!

Hailey going a little crzy, but always willing to help out with my crazy bunch.

Noah and Josie!

Oh isn't my little hot dog beautiful! I adore that smile!

Door to door trick or treating to people we absolutely do not know! FUN!

Enchanted's Giselle...AKA Cozy!

I think that tongue is so stinknin' cute!

My exhausted kids after too many hours of Halloween fun!

John dressed up like Uncle Nathan!

Deeken scared out of his pants of Daddy!

Everytime I get Deeken out of his bed for the last week, the first thing he says is, "Daddy scare me." I wondering if he is having Nightmares about how John looked. He was pretty scared of all costumes, but he REALLY didn't like it when one of his family members looked different. Minus Josie, he loved her in her Hot Dog costume.

And that is how this Halloween played out. Hope all of you had a great time too.
