OK, I'll go first! Don't twist my arm!

(Note, no Old Gray Mare this year, sorry DD2, but you are the cutest purple pixie in town.)

2 dragons at my house!

We couldn't find a good boy dragon for ds so I made it out of a robe....I'm not the best costume maker but I tried.

I was just so happy that ds wanted to be what his sister wanted to be. It was cute.

Ana-mom and SKL, those fairy costumes are really sweet.

Heart Owen and Ian

Here are my boys--Owen's a triceratops (and a very adorable one at that, although he kept telling me he was a mean triceratops) & Ian's a dragonfly! I'm also including a gratuitous photo of them playing in our wet-weather creek.

they are all so cute! looks like everyone had fun dressing up!

Tati was a butterfly (yes, I know it looks like a fairy but the only thing that mattered to her was that it had wings so she could fly like a butterfly!)

She was a little grumpy halloween night so I am including one pic of her in costume, when she was in a better mood!

We had "Jason" and supergirl at our house.

Not much trick or treating though. DS has a broken ankle so he only went around the block and DD had the flu so she trick or treated at home (we pretended our bedrooms were houses and she knocked at our doors for candy.)

I love the grumpy picture, Tati! Ah, the drama, it makes life worth living!

Everyone looks terrific! Lots of big smiles!
