This is Halloween

This week was packed full of Halloween fun. On Wednesday James, Alex, and I were able to help out at William's class party. It was fun to see William with his friends... James especially loved it. The boys each had several costumes we we switched it up from day to day. Thursday we were invited to a friend's Halloween party. The boys had a great time... as did I (thanks Janine!)
before the party: William the Storm trooper, Alex the pumpkin, and James aka Spidey
That night was also our pumpkin carving night. William knew just how he wanted the pumpkin carved so he designed it... very scary. James loved messing with the pumpkin guts whereas William thought it was pretty gross.

Friday afternoon we attended the annual trick-or-treat event at Rich's work. It's always so much fun to go over there... and we get way too much candy!
with Dad at work: William the Storm Trooper, Alex the penguin, and James as Batman

And just because he was so adorable we have to have a close up of Alexander. He was a big hit.
Saturday night was the ward trunk-or-treat. While we were getting ready William was doing all sots of stunts (because he is Batman). It was pretty funny to watch. The boys were so excited! They loved playing all the games but William's favorite part may have been the end when he got to pass out the last of our candy!

Wow! So much fun in so few days... I'm so glad that it's over!

  2. Melissa... they each have 2 (I think James actually had one more). Rich's mom went a little crazy and bought them a few this year. If it were up to me I would have just put something together out of stuff we had at home. And I have no idea where she got the batman costume... I think at a Halloween store! By the way... you need to tell me about your move!

  3. Your boys are so cute. I was going to ask the same thing--where did you get all those costumes? Olivia really wanted Ethan to be superman or spiderman.

  4. Woah, that is a ton of costumes. It's confusing, because James is Spiderman, then William and James are Spiderman, and then James is Batman and then William is Batman. It's like they're twins or something!
