So it’s the day after.  I’m pooped!  The boys were trick or treating fools last night but they were still up at the butt crack of dawn.  WTH?

Anyhow.  Mr. A’s Robot costume was a huge hit!  Everywhere we went people told us that his was the best costume in town!  I was so happy.  He was really cute.  Unfortunately, the costume was a bit heavy and it was pretty hot last night.  So after about 20 mins, he was tired and ready to take it off.  Nothing more pitiful than hearing a 4yo complain about his back hurting.   It’s really too bad we didn’t have a costume contest to attend, he totally could have won.

The brothers went as ghosts.  They were cute little costumes that I made myself with an oversized white t-shirt, some tuleing and white tights.  They got lots of compliments, too.  I think everyone is so used to the nylon store bought costumes that when a cute homemade one comes along, people are surprised.  Either way, lots of compliments for everyone and mommy was very proud of her efforts (and DH’s, too).

Of course, I have pictures:

I have a TON of pictures. LOL  The first one is Gabe.   I didn’t try the tuleing on before we got to the church.  So when I put it on, we discovered it was too long.  In order to keep them from tripping on it, I tied knots in the front and back.  Not quite ghostly, but better than scraped up faces from falling down.

Nate.  We tried tearing his tuleing to shorten it and all we did was rip it to heck.  He didn’t end up wearing his for long because it was too messed up.  Note to self:  Carry scissors in the diaper bag on Halloween.

Here is the both of them together

Our little Robot at the beginning….before he was pitiful

Ny nephew, the Fireman

Some more…

Notice Gabe has that darn bear…LOL  mommy ended up carrying it most of the day.

Off we go!

I really liked this one of my niece.  She looks so sweet here.

Daddy and Eddie

Alright.  So this is how my poor sweet robot looked about about 20 mins.  I told you he was pitiful

This was an attempt at a group shot.  It’s missing two cousins though.  I don’t even know where the baby was and our other cousin came in late and the pics were not good.  This was half way decent though so I thought i would share.

This was taken at our party.  It’s my spider cake that I made.  I’ll be back later with step by step on how I put it together, as well as my other party food that we made.  But I wanted to put this here for my bug friends.

Off to see why the boys are talking to their potty chairs.  Hope you liked the pics!  I had fun taking them.
