Halloween 2011

We didn't have school this year on Halloween which was really fun for the boys.  They played all day and then we got ready for Halloween night.  I made these little ditties to bring to the party.  I got the idea here. 

Cute Lincoln dressed up as Harry Potter.

Hunter as Indiana Jones.  I don't know where Palmer was during our little picture taking session, but I didn't get one of him before the festivities.

My oldest brother Steve.  I loved his costume!  His wife came up with some really fun Halloween costumes.

Josh and I were Bert and Mary Poppins. 

My two youngest brothers were "nerds" :)  The funniest thing was that they used Pokemon cards for their nerd costumes.  My boys and the rest of the cousins think Pokemon cards are the coolest thing ever. 

My sister and her husband were characters from a black and white white movie (so creative right?!)  Their daughter was the cutest ballerina.

 

My other sister and her husband were the oldies of the group.  They were so funny and kept us laughing all night. 

My oldest brother and his wife were Frankenstein and a mad scientist.  Their kids were a ghost, witch and robot. 

My sister was a gypsie (her husband was out of town so we were so sad he wasn't there, he loves Halloween and always comes up with good costumes).  Their kids were an Egyptian, two vampires and two pirates.

Everyone looked so cute!  Another of my brothers came later with his family.  He and his wife were a cowboy/cowgirl.  Their kids were a china girl, super girl, and superman. For some reason I didn't get a picture of my parents (probably because they were busy making homemade donuts and pizza).  They were army guys and looked so great.

This was McKay's first time trick or treating and I went a little crazy with the camera. 

Josh started making faces in the pictures...so I told him that he'd be on the blog...

Isn't he the cutest little trick or treater!?

This picture totally fits McKay, Mr. Independent. I love it.

He was all about the candy. 

After we got home from trick or treating we played lots of fun games.  I was in charge of "Spooky Eyes".  I got it last year from this blog. 

We always try to get a family picture of everyone in their costumes. It isn't always easy, but we got one this year. It was a great year for Halloween! Now, on to Thanksgiving!
