Halloween Fun






Well it was another great year of Trick or Treating and celebrating Halloween. Avery was at such a great age for it this year and was very excited to get out there and go to each house. I was amazed. She always amazes me, but she literally walked up to houses for 1 1/2 hours and said "trick or treat" and "thank you" to every single person. She was so polite and not shy in the least and would grab one piece for herself and one for her little brother who didn't make it up to the door in time, every time.  
Avery chose her costume this year and wanted to be Snow White. It was perfect for her.  I was amazed that almost every girl in her preschool classroom as well as dance class was some kind of princess.  Tis the age for a princess! Kellan was a dragon and practiced with daddy growling like one. He was adorable in the costume and was lucky because he had a very warm one this year for the weather.  The first several houses he wanted nothing to do with it and would not walk up but once he started figuring out that he got candy he sure enough kept up with the best of  them.  He insisted on walking(no surprise) the entire time too.  And every time he got a piece of candy he would say "open". I think he ate 1/2 his candy while in route. So below are a bunch of pics of the celebration.  Hope you enjoy! Happy Halloween!

My favorite picture of Kellan the whole night. This pretty much sums it all up

Pre-Halloween fun

Here are a few pictures before all the Halloween trick or treating begins tomorrow. Avery went to school today dressed up for her classroom party and was so excited. She even asked for the "poison" apple for breakfast. 
We carved our pumpkins on Saturday and even got creative with our small ones and last but not least little brother made the blog today with his orange covered face from his Halloween cupcake:)
More pictures to come tomorrow.....

Halloween dance class

Avery had a Halloween dance class on Wednesday and she got to dress in costume and they put on a little show for the parents. She was so excited and was actually not shy at all to get up and tap in front of an audience. She followed directions well and listened to her teacher. It was very sweet.  Here are a few pictures of her performance:)















I love this picture because Kellan kept walking up to Avery while she was dancing and wanting to be with her.  They are going to be great friends!
