Happy Halloween!

Halloween this year was much more eventful for us than it has been in the past. Starting on October 23, Andy and I went to an adult-only Halloween party, which was so fun. They decided to have a theme, so everyone was supposed to dress as some kind of super hero. I found a bat-woman costume that didn't resemble lingerie like almost every other female costume these days, so that was what I decided to be. Andy went as Wolverine since he has the hair and scruffiness to pull it off perfectly. Here we are posing for the camera, although I look a little deranged. On the 30th some friends of ours from church had a party for families, so we went to that. Here is the food I took - fingers in bandages! Isn't it gross? I used almond slices for the fingernail. I changed up my costume for this one - I just wasn't feeling up for tights and heels this time. I decided to go as Pippi Longstocking since I loved her as a kid. After dressing in the outfit, I then decided that there's a reason why we don't see Pippi as a grown-up - the outfit just isn't quite as cute on an adult. Andy helped me stick wire hangers in my pigtales. Also in this picture you see mom, who looks a bit like Morticia Adams to me, but is Cher. Here she is with the other part of the costume - Dad as Sonny. Hilarious! Of course I can't leave out the kids! On Halloween night we did the traditional trick-or-treating. Here are the kids in their costumes - Drew is Alice in Wonderland, Evan is some sort of zombie skeleton thing, and Alli is a mixture between a ballerina and a bat - a "baterina".
