We had such a good night last night! The kid's costumes were such a big hit and we got waaaaaaaay too much candy. I took some shots of the kids in their costumes before we left so that way they could focus on trick-or-treating:)
Introducing Princess Leia
and a close up of the buns:
Introducing Yoda:
The sleeves were a little long, but I decided not to hem them (out of complete laziness). The hat would not even close under his chin, so I chopped off the part that had the snap closure and sewed a piece of elastic on.
He kept calling his
yoda ears a hat:)
First we went to Seaside because all the merchants were handing out candy.
Checking out the loot so far:)
There is a section in Seaside with little art galleries, and they had a guy playing a drum and a guy playing a flute.
Kieran watched them forever:) This guy,
btw, was totally content holding Daddy's hand and walking the whole time!
Then we ate dinner out, and came back home to visit a few of the neighbors.
When we came back home, I tried again at getting a picture of the 2 of them together, and this is what I got. I kinda like it better than a posed shot though:)
Then she had to check all the candy out and count it. The total?
155 pieces. We decided to let her eat as much as she wanted today, and then we are going to "buy" it from her and she can use the $ to pick out a toy, and we will throw it away, probably. That way I don't, I mean
Aislynn won't eat it all:)
