Halloween

So when we were moving to England I didn't bring lots of our holiday items. One thing I left behind is all our Halloween costumes, because I didn't think Halloween was celebrated over here. But because we are at an American air force base, they do celebrate. We made do with what we had though.

Some ward friends invited us over for dinner and trick or treating and we enjoyed the company and candy and the kiddos loved getting so much candy. We only went around 2 blocks and the kids each had a gift bag full of candy. I guess one of the benifits of living in the base housing. They are so crammed together you don't have to walk far on Halloween to get a bag of candy:)


The Ingersoll and Jones crew: Livi the witch, Alissa as Tinkerbelle, Remi as Rupunzel, Broden the cowboy, Drew as Superman and Avery as a Fairy ballerina.

We made Remi's hair from yarn I am hoping to finish into a blanket someday, and her dress was old fabric I had in my stash!

 We had all these things for Broden to be a cowboy.  He even knew what to put on when I suggested the idea. He found the bandana, holster and gun without me telling him what to get. It was cute.
 Alissa didn't really have a choice about what to be, but she loved her costume and wore it ever day for about a week after halloween.



We didn't dress Parker up on Halloween, but at Blake's office party he was a cowboy like Broden. He just wouldn't keep his hat on.
