trick-or-treat and the debut of a new superhero.

After much anticipation, Halloween finally arrived and the kids (well, Lincoln) couldn't have been more excited.

Here is Minnie Mouse (complete with pacifier - who knew?) all ready to go trick-or-treating.



Below are this year's pumpkins. Linc's is the scary face and Cassie's is a kitty cat. Mom did the little polka dot punkins.

So, I had a feeling that Matt had a costume this year. Linc sort of mentioned that dad was going to dress up and he had told his teacher at school that "mom and dad like to dress up for Halloween" which I thought was weird because we've never dressed up to take the kids trick-or-treating. Matt must've let Linc in on his secret. Well, the big reveal came after the kids were in their costumes: Beer Man arrived. He came complete with a superhero cape (which Linc loved), beer holders and beer goggles. Check out my two superheros below...

This is what Cassie looked like most of the night. She was wheeled around in the wagon - couldn't have cared less about getting out to get treats and she really didn't need to because Linc kept filling her bucket with treats. All Cass wanted to do was eat the treats. I'm telling you, this girl can eat!


Here she is again...at the end of the night...munching on some snacks.

And finally, she came inside to take stock of her bucket.

Batman knows that he needs to protect his treats from Minnie Mouse!

All in all, we had a blast trick-or-treating. The weather was a bit chilly, but how can one complain? At least it didn't rain. Linc did a wonderful job this year shouting trick-or-treat, properly saying his thank you's without too many reminders, and even sharing his treats with his sister and mom & dad.

Happy Halloween!
