I know the holidays are going to be hard without my mom to share them with. I know that. I didn’t expect Halloween to be hard though for some reason- I am not a huge fan of Halloween and we never did much with my parents for the holiday. Boy, was I wrong. I got through the actual day ok, but the leading up to and after were difficult. My “down in the dumps” feeling was probably made worse because of the crazy amounts of chocolate I eat every Halloween. That sugar crash sure didn’t help!
The kids had a great time though, as usual. We had a ton of costume choices at home this year so rather than the painstaking search and hunt for the perfect costume we decided to let the kids pick from what we already owned. I think they chose really cute costumes.
This one was mine when I was about 2 years older than Sammie. She can barely fit into it now so we thought we better dig it out this year. It’s a Korean dress my mother got when we lived in Japan when I was a girl. She looked great in it.
Tyler was Mr. Fantastic or “Stretch” as he would tell anyone who asked. Loved that it didn’t come with a mask.
Here’s a close up of the hair- the best part according to Tyler- we spray painted his hair white on the sides.
I couldn’t seem to get a good one of our Karate Kid by himself, but here’s a few groups pictures with Spencer trying to run off…
I went to the little kids school Halloween parade- super cute costumes this year:
As much as I could do without Halloween each year- this parade is a pretty cute way to celebrate it.
