Halloween 2012

 Halloween this year was pretty good.  The twins and Cate had colds, but were in pretty good spirits.  The kids were able to wear their costumes to school and have class parties.  I was able to go and help with Cassidys.  Once the big kids got home we all got ready and headed into town to do the business trick or treat.  The first stop on our list was a little sewing store that always gives out t-shirts.  The kids love to get them and wear them all the time. 
Cassidy and I made the twins and her costume.  We had a lot of fun doing this.  It was the first time we have made someones costume.  They are suppose to be cute girlie scarecrows.  The twins love the skirts!  They are such girlie girls!
Conner was so excited to have his hair painted black and his face painted!  I think this might have been the first time we have painted faces!  Just lazy I guess...and nobody has cared enough to ask for it. 
Corbin was stoked to have a mask and gloves.  (He ended up taking the mask and gloves off about 5 minutes into trick or treating.  :))  He was so bugged he couldn't wear the mask and gloves to school for the Halloween party that he refused to wear his costume, but ended up putting on a vampire costume we had at the last minute.

Out and about at the business' trick or treat.  I bought this wagon this year and it is the best thing ever.  How have I had this many kids and never had one?!?

 Cate.  Such a trooper.  She was really starting to not feel so hot.
 
We went to most of the business' then headed to Grandpa Russells, Grandma Russells, and the Grandpa Bob and Grandma Cathys.  By the time we got to Grandma Cathy's, Caylee was the only baby awake so we had a quick visit and then I took the babies home and bathed them and put them to bed.  Cameron took the big kids around and did more trick or treating.  They got quite the haul.
 
On a side note....look what we saw!  I don't know why we get so excited about this every time.  We see them a lot!  Right off of the sidewalk in town, smack dab in the middle of the business trick or treat were 2 deer standing!  I am surprised they were there, it was pretty loud and kids running up and down the sidewalk. 
We have seen tons of deer the last month.  I hope I have tree's left after this winter.  Isn't it a little early for them to be down so much?
