Halloween 2013

I decided to coordinate the kids costumes this year, realizing this may be the last year that they let me do that.  Caden wanted to be a firefighter, so Annabelle was his fire dog.  She was such a cute little puppy.  A few weeks before Halloween, when she tried on her costume for the first time, she ran all over the house in her dog costume barking and didn't want to take it off.  She had so much fun playing in it that day, I was a little surprised when she threw a fit about wearing it for all of the Halloween festivities.

The day before Halloween, we went with our playgroup to a nursing home and made crafts to give to the residents.

 

We had a Halloween play date at an area park.  We tried to get all the kids to line up, but it was a little difficult.  Annabelle is kind of hiding in the back left.

Our neighborhood had a block party in one of the cul-de-sacs.  After that, we put Annabelle to bed, and I took Caden to a few neighbors' houses to trick or treat with Marty, our next door neighbor.  He had so much fun.  He even got to stay up late to play with Marty and eat a blue sucker before bed.
