Usually it seems like you spend a lot of time or money (or both) on a Halloween costume that the kids wear once and then you promptly put away. But not this year. We were so busy!
First, Macey was able to go to a birthday party and dress up. She had a great time and afterward we went to a party at The District (a large shopping area close to our home). The girls painted pumpkins and went trick-or-treating to the stores. Macey declared it to be the best day of her whole entire life!
Emma was also able to have a class party! That's her on the front row -- my little witch!
Molly was just the cutest Elmo! She was so good about leaving her hat on and at one stop even did a little Elmo dance.
One night my sister and I took the kids to search for The Great Pumpkin! The kids were able to get their faces painted, do a cake walk, do a ring-toss, and fished for prizes. The actual search did not go well for the little kids. The big kids were fast and furious in picking up candy. But, now that we know how the "search" works, we'll be ready for next year!
The girls were able to go trick-or-treating at Daybreak (the community around Emma and Macey's dance studio) and then trunk-or-treating at our church.
Holy cow! We were busy!

It's a good thing that Halloween was on a Sunday so that you could rest from all those activities! For the first time EVER we did not even buy any candy! With Halloween being on Sunday I plumb forgot! How crazy is that!?! Not a drop of candy in our house this Halloween season!
