Happy Halloween of 2010!

I was going through my drafts and realized I never put up this post. I think I was having trouble uploading the video on the bottom and never got around to finishing it.
 Apparently, I thought I was falling behind when I wrote this because it was already a month past Halloween. Little did I realize how late this post would actually be. So here our Halloween. 3 1/2 years late.

Now that Thanksgiving is almost here, I'm finally getting some Halloween pictures up. The kids had a great time trick-or-treating with our neighbor, Julia. Sam absolutely hated his dinosaur costume. Fortunatley, I suspected that might happen since he didn't care for his Kiddie Parade costumet this summer, and I picked up a spare costume on hand (one that didn't go over his head).

Elena insisted on being a cow because she knows her cousin, Riley, was a cow when he was 1. Riley's little brother, RJ, wore Riley's old costume so we had 2 cows in the family this Halloween!

Not only did Sam let us put on his tiger costume, he LOVED having the whiskers and nose drawn on. He spent a lot of time admiring himself in the mirror that evening. We learned quickly to keep black markers away from him for the few weeks after Halloween because every time he got one he would draw all over his face.
