Halloween • 2009


HALLOWEEN
We Love Halloween. Ava Loves to Dress up (Me too, but unless I have an excuse to—like a party—it's not worth the time or money) and most of all Ava Loves wearing
Real Princess Wigs. And adding one more kid to the Dressing up Fun, was even better.

So ever sense I was pregnant with Gavin and we found we were having a boy, the only way we could make Ava happy about the fact that she would have a little brother and not a sister was that Gavin would be her Prince. So when Halloween came around Ava kept asking us when we were going to get Gavin's Prince Costume. So we looked, didn't find anything so the next best thing that we came up with was....


Ava will be •••• Belle
and
Gavin will be •••• The Beast


We thought it was a great idea, until we showed Ava what he would be wearing, and she did not approve, she said "that is not the Beast, that is a Lion", after much persuasion we convinced her that he was a real Beast.

The cutest Beauty and the Beast I've ever seen!



Halloween Parade @ Jack's and Nate's School.



My cute Skeleton on Halloween Morning.
We had my family over for Breakfast.
We had Orange Waffles, Orange Juice, Fruit, and German Pancakes. Very Yummy!


So we started out Trick-or-Treating at the Mall.
Very Nice, it was warm and we got a lot of Candy Fast.


And Yes, we did bring a Bucket for Gavin...
We might as well get double the candy!


And we got to visit Spencer at P.F Changs

Trick-or-Treating at Nordstrom.
They were the only ones that really got into it, a whole lot of scrooges at the mall
—sorry wrong holiday.


The boys in their Costumes... ready for Candy!



Trick-or-Treating with the Cousins.

Gavin was a Trooper, He slept the whole time in his Stroller. He was so warm and was actually Sweating! Being in the Beast costume that has 10 pounds of padding and in his little Uggs... He was toasty!

Before Ava got Cold, she said...
"I hate Halloween, I suck at this game... My legs are Breaking"
Her Wig started to itch her, so we took it off and got her to wear Ryan's Beanie, but she insisted she still wear her Crown.

Halloween Day.

(Ava is already planning what her and Gavin will be next year)
