Halloween and how can it be November?

I blinked and we are already 1/3 of the way through the 11th month of the year, from here on out, it's crazy town USA with birthdays, the holidays and the general shenanigans!

We made it through Halloween, Callie's Birthday weekend, conferences and closed on a sweet piece of land in the country! (much more about that later)

So Halloween...
It was freezing this year, cold and short but fun!

They did most of the carving and cleaning this year, so it was more productive and far less work, which is what you always want as a parent!

Not too shabby for these two!

At school we had our annual monster party! It was a blast!

We did crafts and made monster cookies and watched Monsters University (Have I mentioned how much I love teaching elementary?!)

The most mismatched pair on the block. I had Kellen all convinced to be captain America or Spiderman and he went rogue and decided to be a lion. Which is super fitting given his obsession with lions, but these two things just don't quite go together!

We made a quick pit stop at Grandma and Grandpas's house to visit their neighbors and take some pictures with little monkey we found! 

By the time we made it back to our hood, the sun had set and the wind picked up and Wonder Woman's legs and toes were freezing and our big lion's costume was itchy! They called it quits on their own after about 20 minutes! So we headed home to pass out candy and get some fish tacos in our tummies (It was a Tuesday after all)

Pay day! Another great Halloween in the books!
