*Halloween*

I LOVE Halloween!  My kids really anticipate Halloween all year.  They talk about what they want to be, and change their minds at least a few dozen times throughout the year. 

 Alex settled on being a black cat. 

I mean, with Charlie's crazy hair what else could we have her be but a clown!  She was the cutest clown ever!  Her costume was pretty easy to make and I must say it turned out pretty cute. 

I'm still not sure why Jake wanted to be Luke Skywalker, having never seen the movies, but he was insistent and it must just be in the male gene pool that at some point in your life you will want to be a Star Wars character.

I was pretty sure Charlie wouldn't understand the concept of trick or treating but after the first house she understood loud and clear that if you hold your bucket out, you WILL get a piece of candy. 

I tried to get pictures of the older two, but they were way too interested in getting their candy and moving on to the next house.  SO, I settled on taking more pics of my sweet little clown and her first Halloween trick or treating experience.  Who could tell that face no?

Every time we would get back in the car, she would hold up her bucket and jibber jabber with a huge smile on her face, like she was saying, "Mom, look at alllll this candy!!"
