Halloween

We had a ton of Halloween fun this year!  The weekend before Halloween, we attended Goblins in the Gardens, an event at the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center.  The kids trick-or-treated around the gardens, made Halloween crafts, and went on a scavenger hunt. 

My little Ladybug and Ghostbuster!

Getting cozy with a Great Horned Owl.  Check out the claws on that bird!

Adler and Ella

Both Owen and Adler had events at their schools for Halloween.

At Owen's school, the students were supposed to dress as a character from a book.  We couldn't find a Ghostbusters book, so Owen dressed as Jack from Magic Treehouse book series.  All the first grade teachers dressed as Dr. Suess characters!

Adler's school had a costume parade and Halloween party!

After spending Halloween day helping with the kid's Halloween activities, I was pooped.  It was a crazy, busy, fun day, but the kids were most excited about trick-or-treating!!!

There's not a lot of kids in our neighborhood, so most houses were VERY generous in their candy giving.  These kids have enough candy to last a year!

Check out all that CANDY!!!
