It's Halloween!

Yep, I'm finally posting. Yep, it's been almost a year. Yep, time flies and I've missed a lot of things...BUT I'm going to try to do better now. My calling as a RS president has ended and I no longer do daycare. Now, I'm a primary teaching, full time student, mom. I don't anticipate gobs of leftover time, but I am excited to have a little extra. My goal is to update the blog weekly. Hope I can do it!!! :)

Halloween this year was interesting. I had Bumblebee costumes that I bought on clearance last year and thought I was home free. Nope. The boys changed their minds about 50 times before settling on the characters from Phineas and Ferb. It took some work (it was a nice break from studying) but we did it.

Tyson was not a happy camper at first. He wanted to be a "dipent" guy, but once we wrested him into his Agent P attire, and tricked him into thinking we had wiped the paint off his face, and gave him a weapon, he was fine. His tail was his favorite part.
Annie is quite the reader and her current favorite book series is the Hunger Games. She went as Katniss this year..complete with dirty face, injury and black eye. I tried to get her to look serious...no luck. Oh well, love her smile!

No group from Phineas and Ferb is complete without Dr. Doofensmirtz, AND one of his trusty inators. This inator came in handy...got the Dr. lots of candy (ha! What a cool rhyme!) :)

Finally, Perry the Platyborg. He is from the 2nd Dimension movie. Those who have seen the move knew just who Taylor was, everyone else thought he was a funky washing machine. Poor kid. His bionic leg really slowed him down, but Mom made up the candy difference and all is well.

Halloween is so much fun and this year was no different. I'm tempted to go to Walmart on Tuesday and load up on clearance stuff again, but, I know better. Happy Trick or treating!!! :)
