Happy Halloween!!!!

Wyatt wanted to be Drago the Bakugan dragon and Erika wanted to be Ariel the little mermaid. thank goodness for Ebay. I had no idea that they actually had a costume for Wyatt. Luckily we found it cheap. We were disappointed once we got it though. In the pictures the wings looked really stiff. they weren't. I sewed them on and placed some boning in it to try and make it a little stiffer. Wyatt liked it lots more after that. Erika had to have this specific dress. There were tons of different little mermaid styles but she wanted this one. We purchased it for super cheap too. We added the princess Ariel shoes that are at least 4 sizes to big and her flower in her hair. she alsways wants her hair down now. I can hardly get here to wear it in anything because of Ariel. At least it gets combed right? I sprayed both of their hair with red spray. Boy that was fun trying to get it all out. I think I have been finding pink dust all over my bthroom and clothes. Can I just say LOTS of candy!!! Between the school carnival, the trunk or treat at church and actual trick or treating we were swamped with candy!!! They enjoyed it though. Erika lasted about one full street before she said she was done. Wyatt lasted 3 full streets. I think trick or treating is fun but get very annoyed when I am handing out candy to adults!!! I can't count how many adults and older ids that I either saw or came to our house. We were always taught to "give up" trick or treating when we were about 11 or 12. I guess times have changed but it still irks me. I hope everyone had a fun and safe Halloween!!!

Your kids look great! I totally agree with you on the adult trick or treating thing. I just want to scream, "Just because you are taking you children around, that doesn't mean you take your own pail and fill up people!"

Great costumes! I love that you even sprayed their hair! And ya, aren't parents just supposed to steal candy from their kids buckets when they get home? I mean, that's what I do...lol.
