Halloween '09

The kids were Dorothy and the Scarecrow from the Wizard of Oz this year for Halloween.  

My Mom made this dress for Addie.  It was SO cute.  I need to take another picture of her in it cause I didn't get a good one, and she won't fit in it for long.  Thanks Mom!
On Wed before Halloween we took them to downtown Camas for the town's Boo Bash.  They block off the main street and tons of kids swarm in for candy from the local business'.  It was so fun and I think we'll make it a tradition to go every year.

Once Ethan figured out what was going on, he was off and running to get more candy.

Friday night we carved our pumpkins for the front porch.

I was pretty impressed with how cute they turned out.
On Halloween day we took the kids to the Vancouver Mall for trick-or-treating.  It was crazy busy there, but all the kids had a good time.  We met our neighbors, Trey and Eryn, there with their two little guys.

All we were missing was the Tin Man.
Let the kiddos ride the carousel in the mall for the first time.

After that, we headed home for our annual spaghetti feed and Mom's homemade donuts.
"Gotta make the donuts."


Another great Halloween.  I love the traditions that we have, and am loving making new ones with the kids every year.  
I also love Halloween because it kicks off the Holiday Season, which is my favorite time of the year.

Time for Christmas music...right Dave?!
