Christmas, Halloween, New Year's - What the heck holiday is it?
So I am looking back through my blog posts and realized that I never even posted the Halloween pictures from Trick-or-treating! I just went straight to Emmi's birthday. Silly me! So here they are! Better late than never.
I ended up taking a vacation day for Halloween because Nikki had a half day of school and that way I could hang out for her Halloween party. She always asks me to come with her to school especially for Halloween for some reason. One of the best photos I took at school was of Nikki with her friend's, Kaylee and Gabby. These girls are her best friend's in 2nd grade.
This year Nikki was Hannah Montana. We purchased a wig and microphone but opted to create our own costume using regular clothes. That way when it was all said and done with she would still have something she could wear. She wore the wig for her entire school party, but the wig only lasted for about the first fifteen minutes of trick-or-treating. Note to self; use spray hair coloring next time a wig is required! Even I got tired adjusting it on her head!
Miss Emily was ladybug. We reused a costume Nikki had used. We actually had two different ones that you can see in the pictures, but we opted for the heavier one for that evening. It wasn't really cold, but by wearing that one, she didn't have to wear a coat and everyone could see her costume.
We went through the neighborhood as we usually do along with our neighbor friends, Mason, Dale and Chris Kolmetz. Mason had the funniest costume, he had a blow up costume of a sumo wrestler. It was great and fit his personality perfectly!
I think this was the first year that we didn't stay out the entire 2 hours. The kids were done within an hour or so, but they still got a ton of candy.
Now that we are getting caught up, look for Christmas pictures to come shortly. I promise! :)
