Today was my birthday (well, yesterday since we're working on Gather time here) and we didn't really do much of anything except run around town buying some things for our new house and one thing we did was stop at Old Navy. I saw a monkey costume online & thought we'd check it out in person, but saw this one instead. We thought it was SO cute and Rylan chose this one over the monkey so this is what he'll be wearing this year for Halloween. <----------------------------------
It was SO funny to walk around with him in the store! He didn't want to take the costume off after we tried it on, especially when he got an 'aww... how cute!' from every single person that saw him.
I can't wait to take pictures of him in it to show you all!
So... what are the kids in your life going to be this Halloween?

Actually he and Klayten are going as Thing 1 and Thing 2.
Again. I look forward to it every year with great joy! *grin*
My kids are all to big (atleast in their minds) to go out and hit the pavement for goodies. I sorely regret not having more children, more widely spaced out, in order to maintain a constant yearly influx of sugary tidbits.
Having only 3 and so close together was just bad planning on my part dangit.
Just bad planning.
Oh , a belated Happy Birthday !!
As you know, my little guy picked out his costume this year and will be the UPS man! He's super excited about it. We get packages via UPS all the time, and he always gets excited when the doorbell rings with a delivery.
We wrapped up a box in brown paper and cut a hole in the top. That way, he can carry his package to use as a prop for his costume, but get his candy dropped in through the hole so he doesn't have to carry a pumpkin too. He's been making practice "Deliveries" to us and grandma and grandpa for a couple of weeks now. It's adorable!
Happy B-Day Again!
I can't wait to see pics of Rylan in his costume.
Chandler and Stephy are going as Popeye and Olive Oyl this year!
This year - my daughter is determined to be a "green mermaid" and my son still hasn't decided what he'll be... but he knows it'll be scary. Ick - 8 year old boys are no longer cute on Halloween. :(
Bee Costume
Cow Costume
Giraffe Costume
Happy Halloween 2008!
No kids here, but I wanna dress up! We have been thinking of throwing a BBQ Halloween party for just out neighbors. If that happens, I have been toying with matching costumes for Art and I. (like a flower and a bee, fire and ice, etc.) I want to be a kid again!
IF Hubby has to work, I will be doing some face paintings and having a scary movie night here, with kid appropriate movies, popcorn, candy, and maybe invite my friends 4 and 5 year olds over. Make a mini halloween party of it instead of spending the whole night nagging at my 4 and 6 year olds to listen and stay with me, while managing my 2 year old... at least my 11 year old is past being embarassing in public.
If we stay home, my 11 year old will most likely get a girly pirate costume (school mascot) and then go out with her 12 year old twin cousins, and their mom.
