The Costumes


Trevor and Logan both decided they wanted to be storm troopers from Star Wars. Toy R Us was good to us and put these costumes on sale that very week!

Lizzie had 2 costumes this year. #1 was her Chinese Girl and #2 was this White Ballerina. She was not excited to do her hair up, but immediately changed her mind when I pulled out a can of spray hair glitter. Wow. The difference a little glitter can make.

Jackson refused 3 other costumes before I finally gave up and pulled out his Mr. Incredible jammies. He was happy and satisfied to wear something that resembled normal clothes.


Jeremy's was the best. He pulled out this wig at the last minute and wore it to school all day. The students asked, "Mr. Ward, what's your costume supposed to be?" Jeremy replied, "I'm Mr. Ward with hair, okay?" Ha!

We had a fun Halloween night - complete with:
Pigs in a Blanket
"Kick in the pants" Punch with dry ice
Dinner in a Pumpkin (thanks Amy! it was sooo yummy!)
Trick or Treating
Spooky sounds for the Trick or Treaters
a few Duran family visitors
and we watched Ghostbusters the movie

I think next year the wig should include some pigtails, complete with ribbons...

so cool! I love the whole 2 costume thing... she is such a girl! and to have Jackson want to wear his pjs and not have to buy a costume... you couldn't be luckier! I sure wish my kids were that easy. what a fun night you had!
