Halloween


We had the most beautiful Halloween this year.  The weather was absolutely perfect. I had a great time taking Rachel, Skye, Adrie, Katie, and Nathan around our neighborhood.  We didn't have a trunk or treat and so we stayed out a bit longer than we have in past years.  I thought my children's costume choices were great. 

Rachel was a Mistborn.  I don't even know what that is (I know I should read the books!).  The highlight of our night was when our primary president saw her and said "Oh, Rachel, you are a mistborn."  Our president is apparently a big fan of the book. 

Skye was Hermione.  She is a perfect Hermione and she even borrowed our neighbor's kitten for a Crookshanks prop!

Adrie was Lucy from Narnia.  Although we couldn't match the hair color, she did get her hair cut to match Lucy's style!

Katie was an Indian princess and looks very authentic with her blond hair and tennis shoes;-)

Nathan was a very cute elephant.  He figured out trick r treating after the first house and was pretty serious about going to every possible house after that. 

And Joseph?  Joseph stayed home and passed out candy and had a few friends over to play the Wii!  I guess he is too old for trick r treating!

  1. That is a good Mistborn costume. Has Rachel read the books? They're very good but rather violent at times.

  2. What great costumes! I see a little of your face in the photo of Rachel. :) I like Skye's cat! And, did I know that you had that elephant costume? Years ago Amberly and Jessica were both elephants in the same costume! I love it (but we haven't used them since). If we all got together we could have 3 elephants. :)
    I'll have to look up those books also--I wouldn't have known who Rachel was!

  3. Great costumes all around. I especially love that she cut her hair so she could be Lucy. :)
