Halloween 2006
Finally have time to post about Halloween, here are Amari and Sanaya playing it safe as a princess and care bear:
Alex always picks something good, and this year he wanted to be a penguin. You can't tell by looking at the outfit, but it was the most expensive (it has feet to it to, not pictured):
..and my fave...a$$hole on Ebay was selling everything I needed for this outfit, so I purchased 3 different auctions from him. He emails me 5 days before Halloween to tell me that he shouldn't have put the auctions up because he didn't have the inventory. I got what I could and made the what I couldn't find,except the hat. This is Capt. Jack Sparrow from the sequel to Pirates:
My husband likes to dress up and try to scare the kids when they come to the door, he has a fog machine and strobe light going, but on one occasion, he fell asleep on the stairs waiting for kids to come by, so he wasn't that scary:
The collection was nice, and the kids all traded for their faves, so their were piles of candy everywhere (between my 4 kids and the 2 neighbor kids):
After walking for 4 hours and a little bit of a sugar rush, Alex tuckered out:
...and I was still cold from taking them out, it was 40 degrees:
I think next year I will have their dad take them out.
