Happy Halloween everyone! What do you do when your little boy asks you for months to make him a backhoe loader costume for halloween? You stay up until 2 am and make it for him! Hopefully next year Thomas asks to be something a little more simple…. :) but he was pretty excited about it, and he looks pretty darn cute. So it was worth it. He said, "Wow, Mom! Its so Cwool!"
Showing off some of the cwool features.
And the little lady? We borrowed this lion costume from my sister after my friend, Anna suggested Caroline being a caro-lion. We thought it sounded like a good fit :)
This picture isn't the greatest, but it shows their loot after the fun night of trick or treating. The kids absolutely loved it! It was so much fun to take them out. Thomas kept saying over and over, "It sure is a spooky night" He looked so cute in his little digger- it was totally worth it. And Caroline looked as darling as can be holding her little bucket and taking candy from the neighbors. When we came home Thomas played "trick or treat" for about half an hour before we made him get ready for bed. So cute. Such a fun age for these two.
These pictures seriously make me laugh just looking at them. Thomas wanted to try on the costumes, Caroline is wearing Thomas' old zebra suit from his first Halloween. He said that the Lion was grumpy and the Zebra was happy.
Looks like he is right! Maybe lions are just grouchy? (Thomas's face kills me)
A nice Zebra kissing the lion to cheer her up. You don't see that everyday!
Here are the neighbor girls, Averi and Lilly posing with the kids. Thomas and Caroline really love these girls. It has been fun for them to have some friends in the neighborhood.
Thomas was a bit nervous during his preschool costume parade! I had him wear his space man suit from last year, because his loader would be too bulky to wear at school. So the spaceman suit has finally gotten some wear.
Caroline wanted to follow all the children after the parade passed us by.
Here are some other Halloween randoms
I took the kids with my sister, Emily to the Pumpkin patch in taylorsville to pick out their pumpkins.
this tiny girl picked out this tiny pumpkin and wouldn't put it down.
She was very curious about carving it.
As was Thomas.
And another costume change for Caroline. She is the cutest little Ruby snap waitress alive. In a failed attempt at free cookies, Emily and I dressed up the lady in this get-up. Even though they didn't give us free cookies, I still think she looks pretty adorable!
