Halloween 2017

Lions and tigers and bears...OH MY!  Our family halloween costume was so easy and so much fun to put together this year. Addie was the perfect tiger "princess", Bella's roar was the perfect accessory to her lion costume, and Noah was my favorite little baby bear.  A few white t-shirts and a sharpie pen later and Eric and I joined in on the fun too.

This year we had a full day of fun on Halloween.  We started the morning at trunk or treat at Addie and Bella's school and it was the perfect way to kick off the day.  The girls were so excited to wear their costumes and it was great practice for trick or treating later on that night.  We teamed up with our neighbors and decorated our trunk as Mickey Mouse, complete with the hot dog song which was a hit with all the little ones.  After a quick non-candy lunch and afternoon naps, it was time for round 2 of halloween fun.  We had our neighbors over for an early dinner before it was time to trick or treat.  We tortured them with a few quick pictures and off we went. 

This was by far my favorite year for trick or treating.  Addie literally ran from house to house collecting candy with her buddies, she was on cloud 9!  Bella chose to hang out in the wagon with her little friend, but did still get wheeled from house to house to fill up her pumpkin full of candy, smart girl!  Noah was happy to be along for the ride even if he wasn't rewarded with candy.  After about an hour we convinced the kids it was time to head home to check out their stash.  The kids shoved their faces with as many pieces of candy as possible, the adults enjoyed some pumpkin cheesecake and hot apple cider, and we all ended the night on a sugar rush!  Halloween 2017 was my favorite yet and we are all sad that it's over, but it's only the beginning of the holiday season and there's so much more fun to come!
