Halloween Fun

Grandma and Papa Far Away gave us our best trick! They surprised Charlie and Adam on Friday night when they showed up at our house with Daddy! Charlie was speechless when he saw them. When he could finally speak he said,"How did you get to my house?!" It was like they came out of thin air! They were only able to stay until Sunday, but we were so glad they came!
Charlie knew he wanted to be a superhero for Halloween, and BATMAN was his choice! He really wanted Adam to be Robin. Adam wanted to be Elmo. So, Charlie thought Adam could be Elmo dressed up as Robin. How else could Adam be his sidekick?
Earlier in the month...
We have a tradition with Darin and SueAnn's family to do a Halloween outing. This year we had as much fun as ever. The weather was beautiful, and the kids had a blast!





























Snow came early this year. Just a bit more than a week before Halloween! Our Jack 'O Lanters had snowy white hair.

Charlie and Adam thought it would be fun for them to use the markers to color themselves. Adam said he made himself a kitty. Each one of them did their own art work. Luckily, it came off pretty easily!


Our tradition for trick-or-treating has been going on for many years, as well. We spend Halloween night at Matt and Carolyn's. We had dinner and braved the rain.
I can't believe my brother's a Grandpa, but I love being this little girl's Great-Aunt!
Kelton makes a pretty scary Uncle for little Alexis!


Our little monsters didn't let the rain dampen their enthusiasm. They were out to fill their buckets, and that they did!

What would we do without the wagon?! Carolyn said Matt keeps trying to get rid of it, but we need it.....every single year on Halloween!

Oh, I think we all remember the Halloween candy binge. What other choice is there? We just let them go for it!




Adam threw up three times the following day!
That didn't stop him from wanting more candy. On Sunday, the boys got their costumes back on and trick-or-treated at our next door neighbors houses. Then, they enjoyed their treats on the grass, in the sunshine!


It was a HAPPY Halloween!!!
