As i have mentioned before Halloween is my favorite "holiday" but this year i just could not get into it. I tried everything, from decorating to carving pumpkins with the boys. Nothing seemed to work. But i pushed through, and it didn't turn out to bad.
Eric took the boys out this year while i stayed home and passed out candy. We had a mild drama issue with Rohan's costume (which is kinda shocking) 1st he picked the batman costume then out of nowhere the Thursday before Halloween he wanted to be a Pirate, and was adamant about it. So we broke down and got the pirate costume, he was the cutest pirate EVER!! 
Aragorn all along was a transformer, Optimus Prime to be exact. 
I have determined there is almost nothing worse then trying to keep your kids calm ALL day when they know what awaits when the sun goes down. We spent all day Sunday telling the boys "No not yet" FINALLY the time arrived to get costumes on. The boys got dressed in the layers i demanded. Skimpy costumes + Colorado weather = layers. It's a running joke of this state "You know you live in Colorado when you choose your costume around a snow suit" we got lucky this year and it wasn't TO bad, the boys got away with pants and a long sleeve t-shirt under their costumes. So off they went for trick or treating, and about 45 mins later they came back. Apparently it wasn't as awesome as they thought it would be. It did get A LOT cooler as the sun set, and they boys got tired fast. But they still got a pretty good haul. I on the other hand ended up with more than enough candy left over, we only had about 25 kids come to our door. Sunday just isn't a good day for Halloween. I think a lot of people did trick or treat stuff on Saturday. Oh well........more for me!! MUHAHAHAHAHA!!
