Happy Halloween!!



We got to celebrate twice! Pomerene School had our annual carnival on Thursday night. The boys got to enjoy a haunted mule ride, play games and eat junk all night.
Friday, the boys wanted to go Trick or Treating so we went to Benson Heights area. There are a lot of retired people up there and they were so happy to see the kids all dressed up. One couple was showing a movie of Young Frankenstein outside on their garage. Corwin wanted to know if we could come back and sit in our car and just watch all night! Liam fell asleep, he didn't get his nap. Aiden was just happy to be Sonic the Hedgehog and show off.
Towards the end we ended up at a Haunted House. The boys wanted the candy so bad that they decided to get out of the car. I had to do some convincing that they were just people like mommy and dadddy dressed in costumes. Someone asked Corwin if he wanted to inside and he started to head inside when he said he realized that he saw people going in, but no one coming out. He and Aiden then ran to the car, jumped in and rolled up the windows as fast as they could.
They were done after that!!!
About the costumes, Aiden had to be Sonic the Hedgehog. So I found the hat online. Then we bought a blue outfit. I added fleece to the front of his shirt, bought gloves and Ben made the beautiful spikes. We were very pleased with the outcome.
Corwin wanted to be a Clone Trooper. His birthday was in September so it was a great time to buy a costume.
Liam has many stories. I had no clue what to do for him. Corwin had been Bob the Builder when he was 2 so I thought that. So Thursday night he was that. That night he found a spiderman costume and ninja outfit in my pile of costumes. So he tried them all on and Friday ended up going as a Ninja, a sleeping Ninja!
