Halloween Pics

We had a great day on Friday! I took the kids to Shelaghs school for her class Halloween party in the AM. We had a relaxing middle of the day at home in preparation for the evening activities. At 330, we went to our downtown which they close off for the kids to trick or treat up and down Main Street to all the businesses. Home for a quick dinner and then out in the neighborhood with our neighborhood pals. Home by 8 and candy officially siphoned off by Mom and Dad (okay, just by Mom) and hidden (for me to give away of course, not slowly eat until Xmas).

Shelagh wore her Tinkerbell costume all weekend. Little-Miss-Dressup will get great wear and tear out of this one. Rorys costume came out great! Joe worked hard on it and Rory LOVED it! He told everyone his Dad made him Fabulous Hudson Hornet costume...he was so proud. I was surprised how many people didn't know who FHH was. Doesn't anyone watch Cars Movie 10,000 times with their obsessed little boys?

We finally got it glued well and the straps to what we thought was a comfortable point for him to walk around with. He actually kept the costume on for most of downtown Trick-or-Treating and all of the nighttime. We didn't quite calculate what walking up and down stairs would be like though and poor Joe had to "Zoom" Rory up and down EVERY HOUSE staircase. We live on a hill and every house we went to had stairs. Both Rory and Joe were good sports about it though.
