Happy Halloween

For Ethan's first Halloween (on the outside, that is) Mommy wanted the kids to have matching costumes. Who knows how much longer I'll be able to convince Katie to dress up as what I want. Gotta take advantage now.

Originally, the plan was to do a family costume. But, funds are limited and so is our time, now that we are moving. So Mommy made costumes for just the little Berrys. Katie and Ethan were Tinkerbell and Peter Pan. Mommy and Daddy were graduates. We have like 2 or 3 caps and gowns hanging around here between both of our Bachelors ceremonies and Trav's Masters ceremony. (At first Daddy wasn't going to dress up at all, but at the last minute Mommy talked him into it. He knows how much it means to her. What a good husband!)

Tinkerbell did not want to get dressed.


Naturally, a fit ensued.


But Peter Pan was happy to get ready.


Silly boy!


Finally, Katie requested to go outside and returned to her happy little self.


Ethan showed off his threads some more.


Katie had so much walking around saying "I tick-oh-teating!" So cute. By the third house she figured out what to say and to hold out her pumpkin.


Ethan sure enjoyed being carried around and awed over. All in all- a successful Halloween.
