Halloween

Like many of you, we also celebrated Halloween this year with a bit of Trunk-or-Treating at church as well as some Trick-or-Treating on my parents' street. This year Elise was a mouse and Ava was Cinderella.


Here's Ava in her costume that I made her.


Here's Elise in her mouse costume. My mom knitted the mouse ears hat. Then I just bought a gray sweatsuit and pinned felt on it for a tummy, patches and a cheese bow tie.


After the trunk-or-treat at church, we did some trick or treating on my parents' street. Ava and Elise got to go with their cousins William and Kate, aunts Kelly and Liz and of course Mommy and Daddy. William went as Harry Potter and Kate as Sleeping Beauty.

Here's Liz as an impromptu chef and Kelly as Little Dead Riding Hood. Kelly said a few times that she loves Halloween and loves dressing up.

The cousins. Every year we try to get a picture with all of the cousins in their costumes. Not pictured: Ryan, Ashley & Nathan. All in all it was a fun, but eventful, day. We got waaaay too much candy.
