They picked Minnie Mouse and a an astronaut this year. And Gavin didn't have a choice. He wore the same costume Taylor wore for her 2nd birthday party and Halloween when she was 2.
Mason's costume was pretty fun to make. Thanks to a sweet neighbor friend who found a cheap snowsuit at a 2nd hand store, she bought it for me so we'd have something to paint silver.
The hat was borrowed, the patches were printed on paper from online images and duct taped on, the boots were covered in duct tape and I found a tutorial online for the jet pack.
We attempted to go to one of the "Trunk or Treats" at a local church. Since I'm still not over my pneumonia, walking around was not an option for me. But I'm pretty sure the entire town was in that parking lot, so we just drove on by and headed back to our own neighborhood to join our friends. Trick or treating is much more fun with friends anyway!
I was thankful to at least be able to leave the house, even if I sat in the car and followed them around. No complaints there.
And just for fun, here's a peak back...

I will say, I was quite sad about that little cow costume not being able to be pulled out this year.
And just like that...it's November.
