Happy Halloween!

Halloween was spent trick-or-treating in downtown Logan and trunk-or-treating around the block. My top 5 favorite things of the day-
1. Both my girls loved their costumes and LOVED wielding their swords. (If you look close Sarah's is the wrapper for her glow stick sword that she insisted on using earlier in the week and we could no longer find the sword)
2. Visiting with the neighbors at the trunk or treat and being able to drop in on friends for a visit.
3. Eating chili cheese dogs! This is a long standing Mons' family tradition.
4. We didn't need to take a stroller this year!!
5. Watching the girls run and play and be kids!!!
Thanks to Barbie, Sarah has been planning to be a musketeer since the new movie came out!

Ellie wanted to be a pirate! Her costume turned out great thanks to a friend and the DI!

What would Halloween be without Cora and Ellie dressing up together and trick-or-treating. It is so fun for me to watch Ellie with Cora. She makes sure that she gets a treat at every stop.

  3. When you told me a mustketeer I didn't expect it to be such a cute girly one.

    Ellie looked awesome in the pirate costume.

    She really does have a special bond with Cora, Ellies a super special girl.

    I failed to see you and Jason dressed up...next year.

  6. I was glad to see Cora again this year...and you didn't have Obama signs! We seriously need to set up some surveylance in this rotton neighborhood and catch the political sign-stealing rascals.
