Halloween 2009

We had great fun despite the dreary rain this Halloween. These are the ghouls that joined us to celebrate.


Heather came as a pregnant stay-at-home mom.


Miss Avery had already gotten out of her Ariel costume by this point.


Mimi as a hillbilly


Jana


Yvonne, Russell, and Mimi


Sophie Grace was a rather determined apple bobber.


Chris and Darth Vader, aka-Hayden


Arnie the Eagle made a brief appearance.


This is my third grade team for Family Fun Night. We were The Berenstain Bears from The Spooky Old Tree.


Reagan went as a molecular biologist and Sophie Grace as Madonna circa 1985.


Needless to say, she TOTALLY got into the whole make-up thing. Oh dear!


This is a shot of the little party that our dog Lily threw herself a few days prior to Halloween. I came home to find that she'd discovered where I put the candy. Thankfully, poison control said that 4 oz. wasn't a toxic amount of chocolate. Can you tell her favorite kind of candy bar? She was bouncing off the wall for hours!


Hayden couldn't get enough of Ms. Lily.


Sophie's first attempt at apple bobbing.


Reagan was SO excited about being able to do this. Who knew a bucket full of water and apples could bring so much joy to children!


What a cutie!


Lily was a very well behaved dog with all our company. She couldn't help but be. She would barely move in this costume.


Reagan and Helena trick-or-treating before the party.


Madonna was too cool to take the coat I insisted she wear. Thankfully, Allie had one worthy of the costume.


Avery as Ariel


Helena, Sophie Grace, Reagan, Allie, and Avery


Reagan and her best bud, Helena





We even had a surprise visit from Hef and one of his bunnies. These are our wonderful Polish neighbors, Beata and Weitold.

Thanks for having us over. It was nice to have something else to do since it was so rainy. The kids didn't even complain about not trick-or-treating for long.
