Halloween gave me the chills!

What is it with Halloween?  I swear, at least 98% of the Halloween's in my life have either been either A-Freezing B-Raining and/or snowing or C-All of the above.  This one was a big ole C!  By the time we got home from work it was super cold and had gone from flurries to pouring rain.  We ordered a pizza to it would be a quick dinner and watched out the window for a break in the rain. We decided that since AJ really didn't know what was going on and also did not like to wear his costume, he would stay home with Daddy handing out candy while Tyler and I ventured out into the elements and hoped for the best.

Check out my little Mikey!

I love how his winter coat made him look all muscle-y

Waving in front of his face. Check out our no-carve pumpkins!

Trick or Treat!

Suckering Daddy out of more candy

In hindsight, we probably went the wrong direction for a good stretch of houses with their porch lights on (seriously, why are so many people Halloween scrooges?), but in the end, we probably stayed out an hour at most and only hit about a dozen or so houses.  One lady took pity on Tyler and gave him SEVERAL handfuls of candy so we "wouldn't have to stay out so long".  In the end, he decided he was done (and needed to go potty), so we doubled back and went inside.  Poor guy was wet up to his knees, but he had fun and got a good amount of loot!

I put AJ's costume (Tyler's recycled one from ages 2 and 3) on to try to get some pictures and he was SO not into it.  These were the best I could get

Choo Choo!
Hat coming off


Getting ready to rip this thing off

Sans hat--Where'd it go?
So all in all, we'll call it a win!  I can't believe how big they are getting.  I'll get to updates or content soon, but for now, here are two more pictures from the weekend.  Love my boys!

Sleeping Bug-a-Boo. You can't see it, but he had the most amazing wild hair here.

I can haz cheez ball? Yes I can!
