We started off our festivities with a ward Trunk-or-Treak party. It was so fun.
This year Kaylee wanted to be a scary bat. I lucked out and found her costume at Goodwill for just under five dollars. She was easy peasy this year. Lucky me.
I was going to have Regan wear his Woody pj’s and a cowboy hat and call it good. BUT Uncle Josh thought we should embrace Regan’s love affair with sword play. The idea grew on me and I sucked it up and altered some things found at Goodwill and whipped out a Dread Pirate Roberts costume.
I am SO glad I did. It was so cute!
I found and had Josh order an Inigo Montoya costume. Josh and Regan practiced their fight scene often before the big day. I should have got video. It was pretty awesome.
Eating yummy food before getting candy.
The fight! Regan wasn’t a huge fan of the gloves or headpiece. People kept thinking he was Zorro. I eventually just stopped correcting them. We did have one of our neighbor gals actually recognize him as Wesley. I think she was the only one though.
One of our ward members had skeleton and coffin in the car.
The children Trunk-or-Treating. This was the Saturday before Halloween.
Halloween night. The children were SO excited to go get more candy. In fact Regan wore his costume to Kaylee’s Dr. appt, that morning, and all day long.
My scary bat and Wesley.
More sword play.
These too looked so good. It had me wishing I would have just done a whole Princess Bride theme.
But since I happily get to borrow my sister’s last year costume and Jon wears the same thing every year we didn’t do a theme. Some time we will though.
This is only their second year doing the door to door thing.
Josh ened up running back to the house to grab the stoller to speed things up a bit.
Two nights of candy gathering and not a single Butterfinger for their Mama! So sad. Meanwhile we have plenty of candy for Regan’s birthday pinata.
