Halloween this year was a huge event. We thought about it every day for a month. I had to buy a countdown calendar to make the wait bearable. We had to talk costumes and actually go try them on. We went to two pumpkin patches. It was an intense October!
Cedric decided he wanted to be a dinosaur pretty early on and didn't waver. He was too afraid to wear the ones with the dino mouth over the head, so we found this great one at Target.
It was fun to finally live in a neighborhood that really celebrated the holiday. There were lots of decorations, haunted houses and a house with Batman and Batmobile. There were tons of kids out and Bob said he was pretty sure people were parking at the elementary school just to take their kids around our area.
Clara and I stayed home to pass out candy while Dad and Dinosaur were out. Cedric really enjoyed passing out candy when he got home. He wanted to invite them in to stay. Ummm, not happening kid.
I went as Osgood from Doctor Who. It was a funny coincidence that she was also on that night's episode. I know, nerd. Clara went as a ballerina. I wanted her to have her own costume and realized we had all the components except a tutu. Turns out a baby tutu is really easy to find. I bet this is regular clothes to some moms! The tutu is big so she can use it as dress up in a year or so.
After wearing his costume all day at school on Friday and for trick-or-treats Cedric decided he was too cool for more photos. Oh well.
And here are more of Clara getting into character because she is just so cute.
Happy Halloween from Cedric's two cranky pumpkins and my happy one!
