Happy Halloween...ok, so I'm a little late!

We had a great weekend last weekend for Halloween. Although the rain was definitely in the forecast, we did not let that damper our spirits. Friday night we had our "Bye" week with football, so we had Daddy home all night! Hooray!
Saturday I decided to get some of the holiday shopping done or scope things out at least so I headed out in all the nasty rain. Had a great enjoyable day to myself. I know that sounds selfish, but I really did get to enjoy myself. I love being able to stop at any store that I may see on my way and just "Look", not feel rushed, just "look". You moms out there, have to understand what I mean! While out shopping I got a call from one of our friends and Brooke's best friends Mom who invited us over to trick -or -treat and for Brooke to spend the night with them.
Got home and got the kids ready for the night. I must say and I know I am VERY bias, but we had the cutest little Batman and Batgirl! Brooke found her costume first, then Logan decided he wanted to be Batman. I went along because I thought that would be cute together. Although, Logan almost changed his mind on my in mid-stream. He spotted a Scooby Doo costume and really wanted it, but we persuaded him back to Batman!
So...here we are! Batman and Batgirl!
Waiting to get on the neighborhood hayride! Oh yea, it also turned out pretty chilly that night too. Wet and cold, but the kids were real troopers. Logan and Brooke's socks were completely soaked when we returned to the King's house for hotdogs and chili!

Logan, Casey and one of Casey's friend got wrapped up.

Back to the King's house to go through the candy and eat as much as we want. Hotdogs are cooking, chili is ready and parent's are just ready to sit around and relax watching football. We had a great night and a late one!
