I LOVE living in a small town. It is so quaint and friendly. Our downtown shops and county government offices set up for Halloween every year for the littles to trick or treat. Now, our family is not big on trick or treating, for many reasons, but this I can handle. It is just walking up and down mainstreet, safe, comforting friendly people (most of whom we know) and not scary. We did this for an hour, went home for dinner and then went to our church's fantastic Fall Festival, which is exactly where I prefer my children to be on Halloween night, at God's house having a good ole time.
This is how our costume's panned out this year...Madilyn chose another princess costume from her dress up box, this night she was Ariel the Mermaid. With Crocs. Surely Ariel owned some Crocs! :-)
Gracie was content with being Hula Girl again, thank goodness it is still warm enough to be a Hula Girl :-)
And Eli, well he has recently developed this facination with animals and the sounds they make. He is so cute telling you the bear says Grrr. So when I was at the mall on Wednesday, The Children's Place had all their costumes 1/2 off and when I saw this bear costume, oh, I knew it was perfect. How many more Halloweens will he let me put him in something like this?
Daddy was the last to be let in on the secret about Eli's new costume. We wanted to surprise him. He was so shocked, he just laughed and said Grrrr to Eli.
Hoping everyone else enjoyed their time as well!

I am positive that Ariel wore Crocs...after all...they are completely waterproof!! The Hula girl was so cute...hard to believe how warm it wss! And, the bear....oh my....too cute!! I actually saw a picture of him on Jeannie's facebook (he was standing beside M.)....and I thought he was the best looking bear I had seen in quite a while!
Love you all....LA
