Halloween 2011

It appears that all major events in our lives these days have many days of celebration. Halloween was no exception, there are parties, trunk or treat, and of course trick or treating. It took us a few weeks to figure out costumes, Andrew went through most of the superheros (we're not really sure where he learned about them?). He finally decided on Spiderman, and Matthew got to be a dragon (from the box of Halloween past)
Getting ready to trunk or treat at church. Totally surprised that Andrew would wear the mask. When the costume came in the mail, we got him all dressed up, and he asked, "can I see me?". It was very cute to watch him look in the mirror, and try to touch his reflection. Matthew on the other hand, not a huge fan of the costume!
My goal is to have a GOOD costume, maybe next year
A special thank you to Beth's nephew who snuck up behind Matt and fastened the hat on. It was soo cute, and he didn't seem to mind it once it was on
They totally got the concept of trick or treating, even Matt added the phrase to his ever-growing vocabulary
showing Dad how it works
*on a side note, candy was tricky this year with the whole nut allergy, but we picked out all the "bad" stuff, and let them go to town on the rest. Our pile became significantly smaller, and thankfully was gone much faster!!
