Halloween

This year, Bradyn decided she wanted to dress up as a Day of the Dead character.  I got off pretty darned easy compared to past years!  Bought the costume and some tattoos for her face and voila!

I headed to the school at lunch put the tattoos on and then stuck around for my last Halloween parade at Panorama Heights.  It was bitter-sweet to see all the little Disney Princesses, ninjas and superheroes.  Funny how the young kids wore 'innocent' costumes and many of the older kids wore the gory/scary costumes.  LOL 

I think Alex' costume was my favourite, being a rocker at heart myself.  The nose ring was too much!

I was thrilled that our trick-or-treating was rain-free this year.  It had been pouring earlier in the day, but managed to hold off from 6:30 - 8:30 while we were out.  Halloween wouldn't be the same without Bradyn's BFF Diana.

So yes, Bradyn is shorter because she had her legs sprawled out and was bent over a little but yes, Diana has had a HUGE growth spurt.  Can you believe these two are only 6 months apart?  Yikes!

Playing with their Play-Doh and checking out Bradyn's stash.  Luckily, much of this is being put aside for decorating Bradyn's gingerbread house at school in December.
