Leave it to good ole Kansas, to give us beautiful weather all week and then drop 20 degrees for the night of Halloween. It was COLD. I told the kids I'd pay them with candy if we could stay at home and do a pizza and movie night and stay warm. But they weren't going for it.
So off we went.
It takes us forEVER to trick-or-treat. As in, we started before 5, and got home at 9:30. Mostly because a handful of our stops involve going inside and visiting with a few dear friends and family.
This year we joined some friends for dinner and trick-or-treating in their neighborhood. And then ended the night back in our neighborhood.
The best part of this year was that no one needed mom to sew or create anything! We aren't very good planner-aheaders. So usually costumes are being created up until the final day. Even last year when I had pneumonia I was sitting at the sewing machine the few days before Halloween. The finished products are always fun, but getting there is sometimes pretty time consuming.
Looking back at pictures from 2 years ago I realized they were very very similar in their choices.
So far my favorite costume choices they've done:
Tinkerbell and Peter Pan
Optimus Klein (for K-State's Collin Klein)
and the astronaut.
Here's a link if you'd like to check back and see them.
