The Kidd's Halloween

This year we had a punk rocker, a motocross rider, and a Super Davie out trick-or-treating for Halloween. Audrey was originally going to be Elphaba from Wicked, but after finding this hilarious punk rock wig at the costume store, she just HAD to change her costume to be a punk rocker. Ethan was easy since he decided he would like to be a motocross rider and since he already has riding gear we didn't need to do much there. And David decided to be "Super Davie"... more on that later.

Last week Audrey and Aubrey got all dressed up in their Halloween costumes and we went out and took some fun Halloween pictures of them all decked out. It's fun having a girl who loves to do this kind of stuff. The girls were crazy and cracked me up as they tried to remain in character as a punk rocker and a zombie ballerina. Here are some shots from our adventure down by the Cedar River.












And how cute is Davie? He tagged along for the fun and kept yelling... "Mom! Take a picture of ME!"... how could I resist?


David loves to dress up and play at home, but he's not quite as into going out in public in such attire. All he wanted to wear was his superman cape. Not an actual superman costume... just the cape. At the last minute I decided to cut out a letter D from felt and put it on his shirt so that he would look just a tad more put together. Thank goodness, my friend Melissa always has everything I need at the last minute. She supplied the felt and the iron on adhesive. David may not get any award for coolest costume, but he should definately get an award for being so stinkin CUTE.



Super Davie to the rescue!

David and his buddy, Dana, all dressed up for their fun Halloween party at preschool.

It was easy to get Ethan to pose for pictures this year.... all I had to do was tell him he could ride his bike and he was all for it!



And, of course, Audrey wanted to take more pictures on Halloween and this time she wanted to use our Guitar Hero guitar as a prop. So funny!


Hahaha! Snapped this right after I suggested to Audrey she may want to wear her coat over her costume when she goes trick-or-treating. Apparently that would not look cool.

The kids had so much fun this year. With the super fun Trunk-or-Treat activity at church and trick-or-treating with their friends Friday night, and the buckets full of candy they came home with, they all agreed it was an awesome Halloween.

those girls crack me up!! It's hard to stay in "dead ballerina" mode when you're with your best friend!

I'm glad the kids got to trick-or-treat together (at least a little) this year!!
