Halloween Pictures

So finally, I am posting pictures from Halloween.

Little Anthony and Tony went to a classmates Halloween Party. I have no pictures (I had the digital cameras) of the event so Tony took a video. It looked great! The family's nanny and the 2 kids made all sorts of Halloween goodies for the party and decorated the interior and exterior. There was a scavenger hunt...girls vs. boys, Halloween games, and of course trick or treating. Both boys were exhausted after the event! Fortunately for me, they brought me home white chocolate covered strawberries made up to looked like ghosts, some Halloween sugar cookies and chocolate bat sucker cookies (chocolate cookies stuck onto popsicle sticks w/candy corn ears.) YUMM-O!

Anthony is a black ninja. This costume finally fits him...he got it from our cousins Christopher and Eric about 4 years ago to wear on Halloween.

Nana and I took the little ones trick or treating. We walked (while they rode in the wagon) from the La Madera house into Winterhaven. Nana and I got a good workout...pulling 2 kids in a wagon and walking several blocks. We were exhausted. After our stint in Winterhaven we walked back towards the house and the nearby church was having a Trunk or Treat event...FREE to the public. So we stopped. They gave out water, hot chocolate, candy (of course)and popcorn! I think the 2 kids got as much candy there as they did in Winterhaven. CRAZY! Each car trunk was decorated and all the people were members of the church. They loved seeing all of the kids. I guess they have done a Trunk or Treat for several years now...apparently we've always missed it except for this year. Afterwards we unloaded back at the house, we went to see Papa and Tina and Nanette at the store. Of course Taylor kept her costume on but Jackson was so tired and hot that he changed immediately. Then we headed home to meet up with the other 2 boys.

Jackson is a black and platinum ninja and he was so excited about it. The costume is a bit big so he can grow into it and wear it plenty of times throughout this year.

Taylor is Dorothy from the movie "The Wizard of Oz". She can sing almost the entire song Somewhere Over The Rainbow. During the week leading up to Halloween she kept asking to wear her "Dorothy dress and ruby red slippers" around the house.

Heading off to Winterhaven. Who would have known that Taylor would outwalk her brother that night Trick or Treating? All she kept on saying was "I want to go to the next house..."
