Halloween!

October sure was a busy month capped off by getting to go on our first trick or treating adventure!  I struggled with Maree's costume - she was too big for 18 month costumes, but a lot of the 24 month ones were too long!  AND most every little kid I saw, was either a zoo animal or a lady bug, so I'm glad I ended up going a different route with the cupcake!! (Granted, Grandpa thought she looked more like a martian than a cupcake.. which is partially true haha)

Apparently decorating for Halloween in our new neighborhood is also a must - they go ALL OUT. I've never seen anything like it - it was like the Christmas Vacation Halloween version.  People had tombstones, coffins, fog machines, tailgates etc. Each house seemed to have a different adult beverage station, and a separate candy station - keeping both parents and kids happy! While it was a lot of fun to see all the festivities, Miss Maree was not in the best of moods - quite cranky actually... hopefully next year she will have more fun!

Off we go!

I would rather walk, thank you! 
We missed the memo that adults dress up too
Daddy and his cupcake!

  1. Now I have never heard of adult beverage stations up and down the block. I wonder if that is an AZ thing?

  2. Our new neighborhood is crazy about Halloween too! She looks so darn cute--Liv wasn't too crazy about Halloween the first year either!
