Dr. Seuss' Family

After Halloween last year the children decided they would be the 6 little ducks this year, but maybe they'll do it next year when we have 6 kids. Instead they racked their brains and decided on characters from Dr. Seuss' book, There's A Wocket in my Pocket. I am a Nureau in the bureau, Kylie is a Zlock behind the clock, Madalyn is a Yep on the step, Spencer is a Nupboard in the cupboard, Alexis is a Nooth Grush on her toothbrush, and Thomas is a Zable on the table. The costumes didn't turn out like I thought they would, but it was fun to let them pick out clothes to match the characters in the book and color their hair for the first time. Fun's all that matters right?

The indoor trunk-or-treat due to the rain.

Our traditional "dinner in a pumpkin" Halloween supper. The kids were so happy Nathan had Halloween off, even though he missed the trunk-or-treat.

Ready to go trick-or-treating
The Cat in the Hat joins us! All the neighborhood kids loved his costume as it was the only recognizable one. :)
