This year for our cotumes we went scary, because Caleb said he wanted to be a skeleton. I made the boys' costumes this year and I had so much fun making them, especially since I thought they turned out so well. Trick or Treating was fun, but I'm not so sure Matthew quite got the concept. At some houses he would stick both his hands in the candy bucket and grab what he could to put in his own. But then at other houses he'd take his own candy out of his bucket and put it in the candy giver's bucket. It was pretty cute. Matthew also happened to kick a cactus and get a few thorns in his big toe and then five minutes later he grabbed someone else's barrell cactus and got a few thorns in his finger!
Here's our pictures:
Matthew as a Mummy
Caleb as a skeleton
Chris and I as Frankenstein and his bride
(Sorry for poor picture quality!) I also decided to do something fun this year for dinner, so I made a really gross feast.
This is my bloody spider meatloaf
Witch's fingers and slime
Apples and mud (with worms)
Blood Clot Punch
Caleb thought the dinner was a lot of fun and really gross looking, so that made it all the more enjoyable!
I also got to see Caleb march in his first school Halloween parade on Friday.
What a fun weekend!
