Happy Halloweenie!


Halloween came up on us quickly this Fall.  Its been a super busy full speed ahead kind of fall.  Luckily, Andrew totally takes over costume requests.  If it were up to me, the boys would probably be sporting something not very original and store bought.  But Andrew really gets into it, and he loves making the boys requests for costumes come through by sewing/stapling/gluing and crafting them up something cool.

This year, Dylan wanted to be Desmond Miles, a character from a video game he loves.  I didn't even know what or who that was, but Andrew looked him up and created a costume including not only the clothing to the T, but a hidden blade and built in candy bag for treats.

Logan loves to learn about squid, and when we were at a theme park earlier this fall, bought a squid hat at his souvenir.  It was only natural that he would want a full body costume to go with the hat.

This year we crossed over a new milestone.  Dylan asked to Trick or Treat with some friends from school, who live in a different part of our neighborhood.  One of the Moms went and trailed behind them, and I stayed home to walk Logan through out neighborhood.  I have to admit it broke my heart a tiny bit to watch Dylan go off but he had so much fun!   Logan enjoyed some one on one time with Andrew and I, and loved handing out candy too.
 
 
We also had another milestone this year... Dylan carved his entire pumpkin on his own. Sigh.  My boy is growing up!
 
Here is Dylan's:
 

 
And here is Andr .... um.....Logan's:
