Halloween 2008

I LOVE Halloween!
I love the dressing up, the decorating, and just having fun (and the CANDY of course).
I always look forward to it.

This year we had a dolphin (for the 5th year in a row, thank goodness for hand-me-downs). Bennett was so excited he could fit in this costume. Sometimes he'd tell you he was a shark and other times he was a dolphin. In the end the dolphin won out. And he TIRED out after just a couple of streets of trick-or-treating.And a dinosaur... He got a lot of attention and loved every minute of it. Except if it was someone asking him if he was pregnant. He didn't think that was too funny. And Harry Potter...Kyle LOVES Harry Potter! And he LOVED that everyone went out of their way to acknowledge that he was a great looking Harry Potter. (I think he was casting a spell when I took the picture).
And an injured skateboarder (the flash makes his "blood" look more red than it was). He said people kept STARING at him and asking him what happened. It really did look more real in person. He thought it was great.

And Mick and I dressed up as bikers for the Ashton's annual Halloween party. I'm winning the race in this picture.

And I got a little carried away (too into character I guess) in the next picture. I just love embarassing Mick - it's too much fun (and so easy). It was a fun party, thanks Ashtons! I love ROCK BAND! and I LOVE Halloween!

Can you tell who the picture is of? It's Mick when he was 5 or 6 (so, I scanned it - I'm not that old). ;) I love it. It looks like the frog's smiling.

Jodi, your Halloween costume was just too much fun. You can tell you love Halloween! Your boys look so awesome and Bennett was just the cutest little dolphin getting his candy at preschool.

The boys look great! Halloween is a lot more fun when your kids are old enough to enjoy it. You and Mick look awesome! I love your little motorcycle. And you embarrassing Mick. You guys are so fun.

Whoa Jodi...I'd hate to see what you do when you dress up in other costumes :)

Kids look awesome! Fun costumes, though those bloody scabs make me throw up a little in my mouth.

The boys look so great!! I knew that had to be Kyle or Mick at teh top of teh page. That is such a great picture too. Halloween can be way toooo much fun. OK so I have been taking my time, but I have the apron and the earing all packaged up and in my car so I can mail them tomorrow. I know I am a dork.

I think your pic of Mick looks awesome! It really looks good. That is too funny that people really thought that was real injuries! Funny. SO remind me how much you paid for your blue cabinet! It looks fantastic Jodi! Love it.
