Halloween!

Happy Halloween! It feels like that was just yesterday, but it's already the middle of November! This time of year always flys by like crazy. We had a great Halloween. In the morning I thought I'd practice with them so they knew what was going to happen. It was hilarious! I went in my room and shut the door and Kaitlyn would say "trick or treat!" to which I would reply, you have to knock first! Then she'd knock and I'd open the door and she'd just stare at me. "your supposed to say trick or treat!" Blank stare. So I'd give them each a piece of candy and say lets try again. Same thing every time! Emily just cried the whole time! She couldn't figure out why mom would give her a piece of candy and then shut the door in her face! It was funny. After about 3 tries I gave up. I figured they'd figure it out soon enough that evening.
Ryan came home early from work (YAY!!) and helped me get the kids ready. We were ready to go right at 4:30, which is when trick or treating starts here. We trick or treated for about an hour. The girls were adorable, and really enjoyed it. It took a few houses for them to get it but once they did they LOVED it!

Our Lion, Logan! -He looked SOOOO cute!


Our butterfly Emily! Again, so cute! (I got her costume for $2 at goodwill!)



Kaitlyn was a bride, but because there's a picture of Cinderella on the dress everyone thought she was a princess. I tried to do a bridal up do on her hair, but she wouldn't corporate and messed it up. AND she REFUSED to wear my veil. Oh well! She also wouldn't pose by herself so here's both the girls. (she's not stubborn at all!)


I went as Queen Mom. I wore pink because all the girls were going to be dressed in Pink, but Kaitlyn switched costumes last min. That was fine with me though. I was just glad she dressed up. There was a little bit there where I thought she was going to refuse a costume! Here's me.



After Trick or treating we went up to Platteville. There's a church up there that I go to MOPS meetings at (think enrichment during the day) that was having an activity. The girls had a great time. There were games, food, and even a bounce house. We only got to stay for just over an hour, but it was a lot of fun! Here's the bounce house the girls LOVED! You can see the pink and white inside, that's the girls. They had a blast!



After that we went to Ryan's bosses Halloween party. It was really fun. They had a ton of food and decorations. The kids had fun running around and especially playing in the backyard. We didn't get to stay long though, the kids were EXHAUSTED by then! All in all it was a great holiday! Hope yours was great too!
