Halloween was so much fun this year. Last year it "clicked" for Carter, and Kyle just kind of followed his lead. This year it "clicked" for Kyle too. It was nice to not have to coax them too much at the door. They both know that you have to say "Trick or Treat" to get the candy, and that if you don't say "thank you" Mommy will make you go back up to the door to say it. This year we had my friend Mandy and her 18month old daughter Macy with us. Macy toddled along with the boys, and since she doesn't talk much Carter made sure to tell every one, "Macy is a Ladybug."
We started the night with "mommy's little pumpkin" helping me decorate our pumpkin cupcakes.(As if we didn't have enough sugar floating around already.)
Then it was time to get the costumes and face makeup on. The boys wanted to be Pirates so that they could wear eye patches. Carter asked me 2 months ago if they could be pirates and that gave me plenty of time to put their costumes together. Grandma Lou made the vests, and total we only spent $4 on each costume!
Let me tell you, it is NOT easy getting little boys to hold still for make up.
Grammie Chrissie sent us Cammies little Leopard costume. So cute! It took Both Mandy and I to hold her still enough for her whiskers and kitten nose. I know I'm bias, but isn't she the cutest little Kitten ever?! Kyle really liked it too. "Mommy look, CamCam is a kitty cat!"

I love Halloween! So much fun!
