Happy Halloween from the Red Super Samurai Ranger, Sweet Princess Cinderella and the LaRue's.
The kids LOVE Halloween. So do I. They have had their costumes picked for months and have had several "dress rehearsals". My power ranger ninja'd until he had a hole in his costume which had to be stitched last minute of course! He found some awesome gloves, a sword and some little daggers but each time we went to a festival or party he came with one less accessory until we were down to the suit and the mask. Surprisingly they weren't lost, he just didn't feel like keeping up with them. Besides, real ninjas can take you down with nothing but a pinkie right?
Dillyn Rose went as Cinderella this year. She felt (and was) absolutely beautiful. She helped me fix her hair and pinned her tiara on just right and topped it off with the perfect amount of sparkle spray! She got to wear glitter eyeshadow and real lip gloss for the very first time. She loved it. She was constantly pursing her lips and batting her beautiful eyes. She didn't walk she hopped or danced along. She insisted on wearing her high heel slippers mammaw and pappaw got her and painted her fingernails and toenails Cinderella silver sparkles. She may not be a fairy tale character but she most certainly is our precious princess.
We went trick or treating around our awesome neighborhood again this year. I love how safe and fun it is. The kids got to play with their friends and we all had a great time. I didn't get any pictures of the whole group together, but they were all just darling!
This was these two cute little guy's 2nd Halloween but first one that they got to really play! They were really good sports giggling at all the crazy costumes and people oohing and awing over their pure adorableness. Their costumes were so cute! It was all I could do not to give those cute little tummies raspberries all day! check out their little twin fire hydrant bottoms :)
This sweet baby was the youngest in the bunch and he managed to sleep through the entire evening. Luckily I got his pic in his costume the day before. Cutest baby pumpkin ever! I adore this little man! Happy first Halloween sweet guy!
Our sweet beautiful Dillyn was so excited to go Trick-or-Treating. She couldn't sleep all week. She talked about it all the time. She practiced at Fright Fest, at church, the pumpkin patch, fall festival and her pumpkin painting party (ill post pics of those soon!) Then when it came time to go door to door she just wasn't into it. She wanted to so badly and each of the big kids tried so sweetly to coax her along. Jaxon held her hand and told her she was brave, Landry called her from the porch, Kiera and Sawyer begged her to run along with them, Camden explained how princesses are brave and she was a beautiful Cinderella and should show off her dress... but the most she could muster was a timid little tiptoe up to the door only to hide behind her bag or whoever had the nearest legs. She had a few brave moments at the most unlikely houses. The sillier more over the top the house and costume the more likely she would love it! She even went and stomped on the button to make a scary monster jump from a coffin. It was hilarious. She held sweet Zoey's hand and danced with her friend and she went in to our sweet neighbor's house who always has a sweet bag stuffed to the brim of goodies for all the kids in our little block. It has everything from candy to nightlights and puzzles and socks. Every year they are specifically geared for the age of the kids and their interests. Its so sweet. I cry every year.
The pic of Jax with these girls was by far the favorite house of all the boys. They went all out! I guess that's why they have yard of the month! Super cute. Dillyn Loved it too. Zoey not so much. Both girls loved the house that handed out sweet Ty beanie babies. Dillyn got an elephant and I think Zoey's was a hippo. So cute. Zoey was the cutest ballerina kitty I have ever seen.
She was more excited than the rest of the kids combined! She ran from house to house and had a blast!! It was so much fun watching them! I wish I had gotten a pic of the boys together. Landry and Camden wore morph suits which just crack me up. So awesome.
Halloween 2012 was a total success! I took tons of pictures and the kids had tons of fun! I hope yours was just as sweet!
