Note to all new parents out there. If you want to save yourself a lot of work and your kids a lot of tears, wait until the last minute to commit to any costume purchases. Gavin changed from zombie pizza delivery man to zombie break dancer and finally after a few tears to zombie biker. He was very patient getting into full makeup and costume.
Some of us however, were less cooperative. Finn wore his costume for exactly 7 seconds. Thank goodness it was just a hand-me-down.
Gavin's makeup turned out really great. Unfortunately it quickly melted off his face by the third house. I guess this is what happens when you trick or treat in eighty degree weather.
Tommy made a decision and stuck with it from the start. Punk zombie! This costume fit his personality so well. He's been wearing it all week!
Petey was very excited to be transformed into a mummy baby. These are all the left over parts from Scott's temporary ankle cast. On a side note, Scott sprained the other ankle this week.
Who could resist putting candy in this little zombie's bag?
Petey was very comfortable in his costume. 
Tommy was in his glory.
His spikes were very popular with the other trick or treaters!
Mr Serious refused to celebrate.
Gavin paced himself.
Finn picked up a hitchhiker. 
Ten little mummy toes!
I love these little chunky thighs!
Soon, more hitchhikers arrived the stroller got heavier and heavier and heavier.
Eventually, Scott was pushing an eighty pound stroller with two sprained ankles on an eighty three degree night just so his little boys could have one more great memory to add to their childhoods. I love this guy!
The sweaty Trick or Treaters soon started to strip. I soon discovered this one had once again opted out of wearing underwear.
Oatie took advantage of the empty stroller.
Finn soon regretted his decision to refuse his costume and begged for candy. Luckily he has generous brothers.
Happy first Halloween Petey and...
Hope you all had a Happy Halloween too!
