Halloween '08

Brian carved the 2 "Tech O Lanterns" for this year. We carved a double T last year too. We liked it so much, we did it again -- and times 2 because we had such a big game the next day.

Grandmother, Hidy, Gigi, and Zoe all came by after the kids got their costumes on to see them before we went to a Halloween pre party and then Trick or Treating. Maya is Genevieve. Genevieve is one of the dancing princesses in the Barbie movie, The 12 Dancing Princesses. Sissy got this movie for Maya for her birthday and it is definitely a favorite. Mason is Speed Racer. He saw this movie in the theatre with his friend, Preston, earlier this year and really loved it. Apparently the movie didn't do very well, but Mason sure liked it!

SPEED!

GENEVIEVE!

Nesha and her friend Marcia brought their dogs Snickers and Sasha to trick or treat with us. Snickers was a bumblebee and Sasha a ladybug.

Mason poses with his friend Catherine. Catherine is in his class at school and on his soccer team.

We gathered at a friends house (in our neighborhood) and there were a LOT of kids, I think there were 17. Most of these families we know thru Mason's soccer team.

The kids had so much fun playing until late -- and the adults had fun too!

At the end of the night, Maya and Brian look like they are having a heart to heart talk. We all walked home and the kids were so tired, but we all had a great time!

Until next year -- Happy Halloween!
