Halloween

Halloween was fun for the Atkin's... The kids started off the day with a literary parade at their school, where they got to dress up like a character in a book. Then with one class following another get to march around, inside and out, the whole school with their book in hand. It makes it slightly more difficult for the parents making sure their costume can go with a book character, but a cute idea none the less.

Taylor has made it easy for me picking a ninja for the second year in a row... Which went along with the Magic Tree House's Ninja book

Cassidy was a fairy (didn't want to wear the wings though) from Alice the Fairy. I just love that book. It is one that I can read over and over to my girls and not get tired of it. It must be the little 3yr. old's sassy personality I relate with or something. (don't you say a word Jeremy)

Jeremy was... well his was self explanatory. Poor Guy! It's ok, I still love you Jer.

We ended the night with a potluck get-together in the front with some neighbors, friends and a little family. We blocked off the street, pulled out the chairs, ate some food, had a fire, and ate some candy of course. What a night!

"Ok, we smiled... now for the good stuff!"

Those are some handsome boys.
