All About Our Halloween

We had a great Halloween this year with lots of fun events leading up to trick or treating.  We wanted to do a family costume again this year, but we couldn't get all the kids to agree (I won't mention any names.....haha). So, we just let the kids chose their own and safe the idea for hopefully another year.

The school carnival is always a favorite for our kids

We had Skye from Paw Patrol, a circus performer and Batman

I didn't even get a picture of Hannah the circus performer.  She was too busy playing all the games and this is the only picture I got of Batman

Hannah's class booth

We went to a Fall Festival at the Bella Vista Library and they were doing face painting.  While we were standing in line Nora said she wanted a mustache.  I have no idea where she got that from, but she stuck with it and got a mustache.

Hannah got a little spider web

Nora's facial expressions make me laugh......especially with that mustache on her

We also went on our second annual pub crawl with friends.  Always a good time.

Dinosaurs for the win.  The Crossett's always win best costume.  Can't wait to see next years :)

Best picture of the night.  The Dinosaurs were invited to be a part of a wedding picture.....

A few fun group pictures

Evan had a little party at school and this was the picture his teacher sent me.  He is so cute.

Hannah participated in the school pumpkin decorating contest.  Her donut pumpkins got third place!

Hannah had a Book Character Parade at school and we didn't really plan for that, but she wanted to participate.  So, the night before the parade we rummaged around to come up with a Mary Poppins costume.  I think we actually did pretty well considering that this is all just stuff we had in the house. Hannah is wearing one of Evan's size 5t shirts.  Ha!

After school we made some spooky snacks to take over to Katie's house for the trick or treating festivities.

Oreo eyeballs

And Mummy dogs

Family picture before heading out

Evan ditched his Batman costume and went with his Firefighter costume.....

It started to rain, but that didn't stop us from having a good time

After getting back to Katie's house the kids just sat and sorted and traded for a long time.  It was really fun to watch them and see their different personalities when trading candy.

Then we had to sort again after getting home.

Evan is already asking how much longer until the next Halloween.
