Halloween Fun...

 Lots of Halloween fun this year!   
Tyler decided that he would be a puppy this year.  So we dug around the costumes and pulled out Cody's puppy costume for a couple of years ago.  We gave him a new name and bought him pants that fit and he was done!
 Cody wanted to be a ghost.  I'm not big on having their faces covered, so a hooded, shredded thing it was.  Then come to find out he wasn't very keen on painting his face and had to buy some tulle last minute to finish.  
Here's Tyler modeling for me...
 We started our Halloween fun with Tyler's school party.  
Here he is with his Pterodactyl friend...
 I was slated to help make necklaces for the first 30 min, but Ty had a good time going around and playing games...
 Eventually they moved to the stage for a dance party...
 Then we headed to face painting to add the black nose mom forgot...
 After some snacks they lined up for the costume parade...
 Later that day we went into Cody's class for a their harvest celebration and helped the kids make masks.

Once he was let out of school we headed down to Old Fair Oaks for their safe Trick-or-Treat...


 They had a handful of games for the kids (and this year they were free!)...



 After loading up on more candy, and hitting Grandma and Grandpa's for a quick costume show we were done for Friday. 

Saturday brought on lots of soccer.  Cody played a good game, not sure of the final score, but I think they tied.  He did really well at staying in his position and getting open for the ball.  Keith and I reffed the following game as well.  The home team was out in Halloween spirit with painted faces and colored hair.  Way fun!  Too bad the 6-7 year old attitudes came with it....

Sunday was pretty mellow and once we finally ate dinner, it was Finally time to go out for Trick-or-Treats! 
 Convinced Cody to let me paint his face, he looked so much cooler! 
 Mom remembered his nose this time as well. 
 They had a lot of fun, came home with a load of candy and lots of compliments.  We were also very happy because they used their big voices to say "Trick-or-Treat" and "Thank you" at every house.  
Another successful Halloween on the books!
