Halloween was crazy this year and that is saying something. I got back from NC late Monday and Halloween was Wednesday.
We seemed to have gotten ourselves into a crazy mess of driving the kids to and from Twin. Between school, pre-school, football practices twice a week for two different teams and the games, we are taking at the least two trips a day. Finding the time to carve pumpkins in between all that and homework was a challenge. But you know us, if it's not a challenge it is someone else's life, right.
Elleree and Truman really worked hard on getting the holes poked in theirs so that I could cut them out. Truman even tried to cut some of his out. Jason had all the pumpkins cleaned and ready to go by the time I came back from practice so.... no vomiting stories this year. Dang it all.
Beckett randomly poked holes and caused problems, his usual.
Dillon wanted to do everything on his own this year. He got a bit frustrated (lack of sleep) and started crying. Being the awesome parents we are Jason took pictures. Dillon informed Jason he was the worst dad ever. Jason said sweet I can call my dad and tell him he has lost the title. We laughed and laughed. We are the best parents ever! (Dillon now says this is his favorite of all the Halloween pictures).
Final product, I know you can't see them. By the time they were all done, I was so over taking pictures okay.
Halloween Dillon was, well you can see for yourself.
Beckett was a bulimic Scooby Doo. Don't ask why when ever the camera comes out he tries to gag himself with his finger. The world may never know. Elleree was a Dino (this costume just keeps on giving). I had to time for costume shopping. I am the Lion. We had to go to a Church Halloween party at the neighbors house and I hadn't showered all day (that tells you what kind of a day it was). The Lion was my best bet. Unfortunately Truman came back from scouting the party early and said masks were not allowed. Why me?
This is Truman as the Grim Reaper without the mask. I'd like to say the party was great.........Next year maybe I will have my own Halloween Party again, I hope!

I laughed & laughed about taking photos of Dillon crying. If you guys are the worst parents ever--NOT--then what does that say about me for laughing? (Dennis thought it was pretty funny too) Looks like it was an awesome halloween despite the crying. Cute costumes.
Oh my, I want to kiss little Beckett to pieces! He is getting so big. I do love those costumes that just keep giving. Those pumpkins are huge!! A far cry from the baseball sized ones we ended up with. You would have thought I was the one that just got back from a trip. Sorry you weren't able to throw your annual Halloween party, I miss those.
