So many costumes!

This was the first year that our kids didn't want new costumes for Halloween. The dress-up bin is overflowing with previous year's costumes, dresses, and hand-me-downs. Clark got Elmo and Spiderman outfits from neighbors, we wore our Incredibles costumes from last year, and Aurora was Glenda the Good Witch (a dress-up she got from Presley YEARS ago). We had a sleepover, did crafts, went to too many parties, and had the best trick-or-treating experience I can remember since I was a kid.

We weren't the only Incredibles at the party, and Clark wasn't the only Spiderman trick-or-treating. He sang the classic "Trick-or-treat, smell my feet, give me something good to eat. If you don't, I don't care, I'll pull down your underwear!" at the first house we went to.

She may look like a princess, but make no mistake - she's a good witch. We trick-or-treated with friends in the Bluffs, an area of our neighborhood just a mile or two away from our house. For years we've had no trick-or-treating action on our street. It turns out EVERYBODY goes to the Bluffs. Having Halloween fall on a Monday may have made for the longest Halloween weekend EVER, and thank goodness it's training season because WOW we have a lot of candy (and obviously the kids need help eating it!). Happy Halloween, y'all!
