Whitney made for a very cute pirate this year. Everyone commented on how they loved the costume. And there were some other adult pirates while trick-or-treating who really loved seeing Whitney. Whitney also loved her costume. She wanted to try it on several times before halloween.
Rachel was a little monster for halloween. I was a bit disappointed about the costume because it ended up being a bit small and Rachel had to wear pants over the romper. But it was cute saying I'm a little monter and the feet say "feed" "me". Everyone thought she was a boy though. So next year I am going to plan ahead and do something more girly for her.
The girls got to dress up at story time. Even the library lady was dressed up - here the kids are chasing bubbles before story time officially began.
After lunch and alphabet days, we went to Eastern campus for the big trick-or-treating. I took the double stroller around campus and it worked great. Whitney waited in line pretty well for it to start. We got there early so we got to be in front of the line. Whitney was so excited about holding her pumpkin bucket.
There was a little carnival after going around campus. Whitney was not too sure about throwing the beanbag. She went up and just kind of placed it through the clown's mouth.
Golfing was pretty fun.
Whitney really liked the bowling. It was with a basketball, but that didn't matter. She got like seven pins down, so I think that was an improvement from last year.
We waited in a long line for face painting. I was hoping to convince Whitney to do some kind of pirate themed face paint, but she wanted a puppy. Oh well.
We got to do some real trick-or-treating this year. This was the first time we have gone and Whitney loved it. We picked a neighborhood with houses close by each other (everyone comes here for trick-or-treating).
Whitney did not want help running from house to house. And she loved knocking on doors. It was so cute watching her run to get as much candy as possible.
Then our ward had a halloween party also. Whitney actually threw the beanbags for this pumpkin.
There was a cake walk that Whitney loved. The prizes were these cute little cupcakes. Whitney technically won a couple of times because she kept wanting to go again and again. But we just let her pick out one cupcake (which Will ended up eating since Whitney doesn't like frosting).
Will was a nerd for halloween. He got to wear his costume to work. I wasn't anything this year, but I will try better next year.
And our stash of candy. Whitney is one happy toddler now. So we had a great halloween. It was a long, but very fun day.
