Don't you just love little kid's in Halloween costumes? Their cute little faces masked and surrounded by soft fluff, I can't get enough. Now I'm not a huge Halloween person, I can really do without the skeleton's and gobblins, but the costumes are worth putting up with the rest of the nonesense.
This year Jackson decided on the Zebra or Gefra as he used to pronounce it :). He was proud and sweet in his puffy costume complete with a black mohawk of hair and face paint provided by daddy, the artist. When we trick-or-treated at the zoo they were trying to get him to stay and be their zebra for good, but lucky for us he wasn't willing to stay! As we were winding down from the sugar overload and excessive running, that the evening of candy always brings, he had me rolling in laughter. He was recently given a Puff the Magic Dragon book that came with the CD, and occasionally as he is settling down for the night he likes to sing along as he looks at the pictures. I was finishing up the evening pick up in his room and was listening to his rendition of the song, "Puff the magic dragon....autumn mist in the land of Halloween!" were the words that he came up with, very appropriate, right? I think the correct words are the land of Honalee (sp?)! Anyway, by the end of the CD we were both laughing together at his new version of the old classic.
Andrew's costume I have to admit was my favorite. He was a lion, and I know that I am biased, but he was a pretty darn cute one! He waddled around with his big mane of fleece and smiled at anyone willing to see. His big, round cheeks filled out his cap perfectly. He was squishy and darling, if you ask me!!
I hope you all enjoyed the spooky evening!

Now those are some adorable boys - from an unbiased person. :) What a fun evening of dressing up and getting all that candy. I'm glad the boys enjoyed themselves, and sounds like so did mom and dad. I know we are still eating chocolate and goodies .. hopefully they will be gone soon!
