This year we joined Mamie and Papa at their awesome neighborhood party for Halloween!
The kids went as Minions, which of course I planned sometime back in August (ha!) I got my Mom working on revisions by late September, and so the planning process was pretty light this year (for me anyway. Thanks again, Mom!)
At the last minute (we're talking a day-of, nap time "ah-ha" moment), Kevin decided to go as Gru, which left me out of the loop, but with nursing and the general requirements of Mommyhood, I had enough going on. Either way, it was a lesson learned. Starting next year, it's back to family costumes (it's just so fun!)
Anyway, we stopped by Gma and Gpa's on the way out to West Seattle to show them the crew. Being the great cheerleaders that they are, they dressed up in support of our little broad :)
After hangin' with the fan base, we were off to Mamie and Papa's for the party!
Since the weather was rainy, they rented a large tent and heater, so everyone enjoyed an evening outdoor with food, drinks, and great company! Steph and Reid joined us too, so it was fun hanging out with them for the night.
And of course, Abigail and George's favorite part was trick or treating, the candy, and the endless stream of hot dogs, juice, and chips ;)
We had a great time celebrating Halloween this year! Thanks again Mamie and Papa for such a fun party- we had a blast!
I hope everyone enjoyed an equally enjoyable night.
Happy Halloween!

Starting it off right at Pap's train table (where he stayed for the first hour) |
And finally left, with trains in hand ;) |
Hittin' the streets in search of the goods |
This little guy slept while his big brother and sister went Trick or Treating |
Freezing cold, with his loot slung over his shoulder. He slays me. |
More chips! |
Steph and G |
The tent! |
Still eating... |
Back at the trains |

Dance party action shot |
Abigail talked for weeks about how Papa was going to be dressing up as a hot dog :) |
Ending the night right with an episode of Thomas |
