Halloween Fun

Devin's dragon wins our prize for coolest pumpkin!

  Isn't Halloween fun?!  Who doesn't like dressing up?  (Devin and Chris, that's who!)  My girls had a terrific time dressing up in their fun costumes and collecting candy at our neighborhood Trunk-or-Treat.  The weather was fantastic, we had a great turnout, and they got to hang around with friends.  Emma has been dying to be Wonder Woman since I bought the costume after Halloween last year. She tried it on several times during the year just to see how it looked.  She watches a few episodes from our DVD collection at least a couple of times a week and thinks Wonder Woman is the coolest superhero ever!  She pointed out to me that all of the other supers have counterparts....Superman/Supergirl, Batman/Batgirl, Spiderman/Spidergirl, Hulk/She-Hulk, etc....but Wonder Woman is one of a kind and gets to save the boys all the time.  Emma thinks that's pretty cool!

Girl power!  Just look at Red's muscles.  She's not afraid of the Big, Bad Wolf...or the Weird Teenage Zombie, either!

 Maren went to a stake dance in her Little Red Riding Hood costume and kids kept asking her who she was supposed to be.  Don't parents read fairy tales to their kids any more? It's a different world than I grew up in, I guess, because one boy that she danced with was dressed as a zombie and kept telling her that he was going to eat her brains!  Yuck!  Where is Wonder Woman when you need her?!
 

A Halloween burglar tried to steal all of our sugary loot, but thanks to Wonder Woman and her handy Golden Lasso, his evil plan was foiled!  Better luck next time, Slick-fingered Symons!
