Happy Halloween!

This year for Halloween Allison wanted to be a brown kitten and she wanted me to be a cat so that was pretty easy and I was happy with being a cat. Then I asked her what she wanted Ben to be and for a long time she said a smoke detector but when I started making a smoke detector she decided she would rather have him be a banana! So I did my best with the one night I had left before Halloween to make Ben a banana costume. Ben was a good sport to wear the some- what ridiculous costume. At the end of the night I asked Alli who's costume was her favorite...she smiled and said "my daddy's!"
I love the picture of Allison biting Ben...she kept saying "now I can eat him, cats love bananas!"


We had a fun evening with our friends...it started with soups and ended with doughnuts (that's my kind of night!) The kids had fun trick-or-treating and would race to see who got to ring the doorbell first. I loved how it got foggy right as we started trick-or-treating it added the perfect touch. My camera was being crazy so I am excited to see Jason's pictures and I am sure I will post some of his later. I hope you all had a happy Halloween and thanks to our friends for making ours a great one!
