{Halloween}.

Every year my church has a big Fall Party/Trunk or Treat extravaganza.  Of course my kids look forward to being able to wear their costumes more than just once so we go:)
G chose to be a blue Angry Bird this year (surprised??).  Here he is enjoying the hay ride:)

Little R chose to be Strawberry Shortcake, it was a little chilly so we had to fashion a jacket, but that's way better than the full snow suit we had G in one Halloween when we lived in Minnesota:)  She's playing the fishing game, she just pulled her prize over:) 
Baby R's turn to go fish:)  She chose to be a "boing boing bunny" in her words.  She about freaked out at the costume store when she saw this Littlest Pet Shop bunny, she loved it and wouldn't take it off the entire day that we bought it:) 
Throwing glow necklaces over witches hats for a prize.  My girls didn't grasp that they had to stay behind the line to throw but this is a church function, kids are allowed to break the rules right? 
Now I know what some of you are thinking, "Heather??  Do you have a fever??  You allowed your girls to eat those nasty, chemical, sugar, preservative filled donuts??".  Sadly, yes:(  The girls saw all the other kids laughing trying to eat their donuts off strings and it just sort of happened.  I won't lie, I kept wishing their donuts would break and fall to the ground so I'd have an excuse to pick them up and throw them away.   
And a couple days later it was Halloween night and it was time to go trick or treating!  Here are all my munchkins right before we left:)  Now for those who may be new to reading my blog, I do allow my kids to trick or treat, however, they are not allowed to eat their candy because the Candy Witch steals their candy and leaves them a present instead.  We have a whole story down on what the Witch does w/all the candy so if you ever want the run down let me know, it's actually quite fabulous!

Hope all your ghosts and goblins had a great holiday as well!!

Love the costumes, especially the phrase, "boing boing bunny". I may steal the witch idea because I HATE how my kids act around the house when they eat candy, and I usually hide it from them after they get it anyway.
