This is HALLOWEEN......

This year for Halloween Dylan was the King of Rock and Tate was the King of Pop. Tate has been a huge Michael Jackson fan and Dylan likes Elvis so it was very fitting.We have been watching videos of both of the legends on Youtube for months.

Dylan had fun being Elvis. He also had a microphone but he did not want to carry it around with him.


 Mike and I caved after Tate had a melt down that we were not dressing up.  I found a witch's hat and had some face painting done at Gardner Village. Mike found a mullet and became a throw back from the 80's.  It was fun!

 I LOVE this..... Joey was the Hunchback of Notre Dame and they looked so great!
 Trick or treating around our neighborhood.
 Dylan and Jake ran around the neighborhood as fast as they could to collect their treats.  Again, my auto focus does not want to cooperate. Dylan is always moving so much.

 You can tell this is a huge Michael fan. He knows all the moves.





Halloween school festivities.....



Dylan or Mr. Elvis had a school parade costume. Dylan was really shy when I went to take his photo and started walking to fast for my auto focus to work.  You can see his cute smile though:)



 Here is the "Ninja guy" all ready for his preschool Halloween party.  He had to show off this great costume to his little friends at school.


His friend, Lincoln, was also a Ninja.  They were so cute!
The boys with their spider cupcake when I picked them up from preschool.

Carving pumpkins......


 Tate found a pumpkin at the pumpkin patch that he wanted to make into Boogie Woogie from his favorite movie.  Mike is really good at carving pumpkins and it is one of his favorite things to do for Halloween.  He did a great job and Tate loved his pumpkin.



 Dylan chose to make his pumpkin into Harry Potter.  Mike had him carving it this year

The Harry Potter pumpkin turned out to be "awesome" according to Dylan




....... and we had to have a Jack Skellington pumpkin again this year.

The annual corn maze fun......

This past Monday we had our annual fun night at the corn maze.  We ate pizza at the Pie and then walked through the corn maze. This year they had a clue game that helped you find your way through the maze and we were correct with the first clue so it lead us to the end of the corn maze in less then 5 minutes.  So, we decided to go backwards and we were able to walk through the entire maze.  Mike and I scared the boys by jumping out of the corn a few times and so they decided to stay by each other just like this picture below. It was pretty funny.


Tate and Dylan pulling their scary faces.  I think Tate won this.  He loves Halloween and he can pull some scary faces!
The boys told us do this.  What you do for the love of your children:)
That would be Dylan as Frankenstein. He was a little short:)
This year the corn maze had a paint ball zombie shoot out.  Both the boys wanted to shoot at the zombies multiple times.  It was pretty fun and the corn maze has become a fun tradition for our family.
