Halloween

I am still trying to catch up on my postings. I am behind on Halloween because I had a "mishap" with my camera and lost all of the pictures on my memory card. Yes, again! It seems our card reader on our computer is doing something to the card to delete the photos. So, we are using another card reader. Anyway, I had to retake the pictures of the kids in their Halloween costumes. That was no big deal. But, I also lost over 100 pictures we took the next weekend at the Tennessee Aquarium. I want to cry just thinking about it.

If you don't already know it, Halloween is probably the favorite holiday for our family. Shanon and I have always loved it. I just love the idea of kids getting to be whoever, or whatever they want for a day. I love costumes and enjoy making costumes. Shanon loves anything scary. So, Halloween is big at our house. We usually have a Halloween party, but, this is the second year in a row that it has just not happened. Maybe next year . . .

Talon's favorite thing now is Ben 10. If you do not have young boys in your life, you probably have no idea who that is. Ben Tennyson is a Cartoon Network character that can turn into different superheros by dialing their image up on his Omnitrix (watch). So, here is Talon as Ben 10.





Terrin is a crawladon -- I didn't name it, the pattern did. We were at a lose as to what Terrin should be. He is still small enough to wear the baby seal costume, but he cannot move around in it (which would be like trying to hold down, well, a baby seal). After a lot a searching I remembered that the pattern from the seal costume had something else with it, and perfect, a crawladon.


Ben 10 is taking down the Crawladon.

(No Crawladon's were injured in the making of this photograph.)




A quick video of Terrin's reaction to Halloween. Watch Terrin's response to the Fisher-Price Halloween toy.

Hope you all had a safe and happy Halloween!
