We had a fantastic Halloween this year! Alex "practiced" trick-or-treating at home the whole week before the event. He would dress up, get his bag and go out the garage door and knock knock. I would open it and exclaim what a cute little dragon he was, he grin like he was the cutest dragon in the world (which he was:) and then I would prompt him to say the magic words, which came out "tik o teat." PRICELESS!
My little dragon was an expert trick-or-treater this year! He wouldn't say trick or treat until he had his bag open and ready, but he always said it and he even remembered to say thank you as he ran back to the wagon.
Alex (L) and Dominic (R) checkin out the loot at Molly's house.
Here they are in action...I think Alex is on the left and Dom is on the right. Pop-pop is the guy in the hat to the left of the boys...he was great about helping them at every door. I have my back to the camera, but I had my Ghost Buster gun all ready to capture any ghosts. :)
Alex and his vampire teeth. We went to the Church tri-ward halloween party on Saturday night and it was sweatin' hot but pretty fun for the kids!
There was a jail at the tri-ward party for those that didn't dress up. They would hunt you down and lock you up if you weren't wearing a costume. You had to get your face painted to get out. We dressed up of course, but Alex wanted to play in the jail at the end of the night. So, here we are locked up...two Ghostbusters and a dragon!
Family photo! OK, so its not our best family photo ever...it definitly needs improvement. Alex was throwing a tantrum and trying desperatly to escape. I'm telling him, "We're having fun whether you like it or not!" ANd, Paul forgot to turn Austin around. But, we got our photo darn it!
Alex (R) and Dominic (L) in their trick-or-treat wagon (Thanks Gramsi for bringing it!). My mom and I found Alex's costume at a garage sale over the summer for $5 bucks! Alex has been playing with it ever since. Molly's daycare lady gave Dominic his costume and they just happened to be the same one! What a coincidence! Best of all, the boys loved their costumes!
Me and my little dragon! (Notice the rain boots! I also found those at a yard sale for $2 and Alex loves to wear them everywhere!)
Dragon in his car seat.
Paul the Ghost Buster and our littlest fella! His costume was too hot to wear at the tri-ward party so Gramsi stripped him of it.
Here is Austin the little pumkin at Molly's house. He is five weeks old! Can you believe it? Gramsi picked up the pumkin costume for 2 bucks on clearance right after we found out we were prego. Now, Molly can use it next year for her little bean!
Heather holding Austin at the tri-ward party. He is so precious!

we're having fun whether you like it or not! oh, i'm cracking up! and look at you, trick or treating in spite of a new baby (you should have gone as superwoman, but i like ghostbusters--someone at school had a white station wagon with the ghostbuster's logo on it, it was so rad. just thought you needed that little tidbit.)
Halloween was pretty fun this year. Tic or teating was hilarious especially when Dominic saw the Grim Reaper and turned right around and RAN looking for some familiar arms to leap into. The ward party WAS HOT and SWEATY. And what I really want to know is who is Phillip and Kirsten? Great Post Superwoman....er...I mean GHOSTBUSTERS!!!
Halloween was a blast with the boys this year! I'm sorry, I haven't even unloaded the camera yet. I should do that now. lol
I guess I should post about being pregnant on my blog eh? lol
