We had a great time this year for Halloween. It was the first year that Taylor really understood what was going on and was
truly excited about her Halloween costume. She had been wearing it for weeks in advance and I think I'm going to have to at least leave the dress out because she continues to parade around in it. Surprisingly her blue Cinderella dress has taken the back seat. Obviously she was ready for a change just as much as I was.
We weren't quite sure what Jade was going to be until about 4:00 Halloween day when I finally woke her from her nap. We have accumulated a few toddler costumes, this adorable bumble bee was
courtesy of my sister Michelle, (thanks again Michelle). Taylor had it narrowed down to the lady bug or the bumble bee and Jade made the final decision. Despite the fact every door we went to told Taylor she had a cute brother, which she didn't catch onto or understand, we thought she looked adorable and they both had a great time scurrying from door to door. Thanks also to Grandpa Dutch and Grandma Kelli for the Halloween treats!
One of Taylor's requests that we ALL dress up which at first I was against. She brought in a pair of little wings that she wanted me to wear to be a butterfly. I
fortunately remembered that I did have a
pair of adult sized wings left from college so she was pleased that I was participating. I tried very hard to get Taylor to bring this little pink poodle
costume consisting of just a head piece with furry pink ears and a pink tail for her dad, she's the only one who could have gotten him into it but she was certain it was too small. We brought him his Denver poncho he bought on our trip to Mexico, (yes I will be posting about our trip soon) and his broncos hat and that was good enough for her. We met in
Keizer and ate at out favorite Mexican
restaurant La Hacienda with our fabulous friends Ross and Debbie and then went back to their house and our old neighborhood for trick or treating followed by
Wii golf and darts. Of coarse a
Wii is now on Nate's Christmas wish list. All in all we had a great night and look forward to hanging out with Deb and Ross again soon. Love you guys!!

Hi Tayz:
I sure liked your costume. I sure liked Jade's costume too. Did you get lots of candy? Did you have a good Halloween? I miss you a lot. When are you going to come visit us? I hope you live at Utah soon because I miss you. I love you.
Love Riley
Bye!
(These words are DIRECTLY from Riley's mouth!)
Looks like fun. I personally would have loved to see Nate in a pink poodle outfit! :)
Cute. Cute. Cute. Taylor's a little hottie witch! And Jade's a darling (non-masculine) bumblebee. We surprisingly get Brody called a girl every now and then. I don't think there's an ounce of him that looks girly, but who knows.
Brooke! The kiddos are adorable! I love it. What fun getting them in costumes, as if we thought they could get any cuter, and then they do! -T!
