Luckily I took a personal day from work because I ended up running from activity to activity today. It didn't help that I was up until 2:40am making wigs and sewing costumes, so a day off was well needed. The morning started with an adorable Halloween parade/performance at Mia and Madi's nursery school. The younger girls went as Anna and Elsa (as were many of the other kids), but they were adorable. Mia sang her heart out and it was so fun watching her. Madi was scared of walking around by herself so Mia came out of her classroom to help Madi.

Then I ran off to Makaela's school for her Fall party. Little did I know I would get roped into staying the afternoon for arts and crafts. Of course I didn't mind; it was great to be part of the kids' day.
This year my mom, sister and niece live in the neighborhood so they came trick or treating with us. Hayley was adorable as a little ladybug.
The family dressed up as the Frozen theme...well almost the whole family. Anna and Elsa were joined by Olaf and I dressed up as Sven. Makaela opted to dress up as a softball player and show off her team's uniform.

The neighborhood was packed-this picture doesn't do it justice. |

Madi was pulling the adults' treats by the end of the night. |

Matt was exhausted after trick or treating but he rallied for the adult party. |
Once again we had the adult neighborhood party and this year the theme was Game of Thrones. Matt decided to dress as Prince Oberyn which meant I got to play Ellia. I had to sew Matt's costume because we couldn't find one, which meant I watched a lot of YouTube videos on how to sew.
