Halloween 2010

We couldn't come up with a good theme for a family costume this year, so we all did our own thing.  Here's what we ended up with.

Caroline insisted on dressing as a dragonfly.

Not quite sure where she came up with that one.

I did my best.

Luckily, she would look cute even in a burlap sack.

(See last year's Dobby costume.)

Princess Whitney.

I tried to convince her that she would make a FABULOUS Snow White.

But she just wanted to be A princess, not a Disney character.

She looked very regal.

(I found this dress on clearance at Target for $6 a few weeks ago.

I COULDN'T leave it sitting on the rack for that price!)

Brandon, the Mad Scientist.

I loved this costume idea.

He came up with it on his own and it is SO him.

The three cuties at the church Trunk or Treat.

I thought if we weren't going to do a family costume,

at least Andrew and I could do some sort of couples theme.

We thought about going as Katniss and Peeta.

But I thought it would require too much explaining.

So we did our own thing, too.

I threw on the polyester bell bottoms that we

got at DI about 10 years ago.  I'm not sure exactly

what I was supposed to be dressed as.

Halloween was just a good excuse to put on some crazy clothes.

Andrew dressed as a Chilean miner.

It was very fitting since he served his mission

in northern Chile, and lived in Copiapo twice.

The trunk or treat was great and the kids got their load of sugar.
 I've got the candy wrappers all over my house to prove it.
