Trick or Treat

I am stealing a few minutes of "Me Time" to post on my blog - while nursing a baby. We had a really fun Halloween this year. I was so glad to be able to enjoy it this year and join in the fun rather than being pukey and miserable like a year ago. Kris wanted to do a family theme for our costumes this year. Originally we were playing on the ambulance chasing lawyer but Abi and Tal revolted and so we were left with Mommy and Leah being the "Wambulance" (Leah is the light and siren), Kris - the ambulance chaser, Abi - a rock star, and Tal - Ironman. We celebrated at several parties. We went to the kids' Halloween carnival, had a blast at Kris's Civitan Halloween Hootenanny which they put on for the disabled in the community, and then had a Trunk or Treat and carnival at our ward building on Halloween. All were so much fun.

Abi had a lot of fun putting her costume together. She especially loved getting to spray her hair pink. Tal was so in love with his Ironman costume that he wore it nearly every day since we bought it, until I had to put an end to it for the sake of the costume.

Here we are at our Trunk or Treat. Leah does have a little reflector sewn onto her hat for our light. Fortunately she doesn't wail like a siren much anymore.

Kris totally rocked it with this Dracula pumpkin for Abi. I carved an Ironman for Tal but it is not nearly as cool and we didn't get a good pic of it.
