Halloween night

We had a really fun night! I thought it would be fun to let them eat jello at dinner. They have never really had it before and I made it into star shapes with a mold I had gotten a long time ago. I should've kept the instructions because I didn't know how to get the jello out! Anyways, Mark loved them, Elizabeth didn't really. The texture threw her off. They both made a big mess and then we decided to take pictures, great idea right?!

Here are a million pictures of our sweet Annie girl in her Halloween outfit:

She is really busy watching everything and everyone around her!

There she is!

With the flash on you can see her pretty blue eyes!

I originally wanted her to be a ladybug, mostly because it's one of the twins favorite animals right now and they walk around saying bug, bug and it's really cute. I thought they would get a kick out of it and she would look cute in anything.

We just went to a few neighbors and then came home to put Annie down to bed. The twins had fun seeing all the kids come in costume. Mark didn't understand why we were giving candy away and not letting him have any of it! He tried to escape every single time the door opened, which was a lot! We had a good 100 kids come!! They were also very, very hyper and played on the stairs and gate for a long time, burning off energy and yelling and laughing....it was really fun!

We also had a frog jump onto our porch!! We put it in a box so they could take a closer look, which was very exciting for them! They poked that poor frog good! I thought it would be fun to scare kids with but it didn't work very well.

Here are the hyper kids and Elizabeth laughing hysterically at the game she loves to play with Daddy!

Trunk or Treat

This year we went with a cat theme....sort of...first off we have a lion! He does the best lion roar so I just had to dress him as one, just so I could hear him roar like a lion all day!!! He did. It was awesome.

Elizabeth has the cutest cat meow, so obviously I had to dress her up as one so I could hear her doing it all day too!!! She did. It was awesome.

And luckily we found this costume for a few dollars and got Annie in on the cat theme too! I figured this is my last chance to dress them how I wanted to since next year they can voice their opinion and I, as any good parent, will have to listen!!!!

On to the church trunk or treat where they scored big time!!!

Mark was so excited, every time someone would give him a piece of candy he wanted to eat it right away. I ended up holding his basket while he chewed holes in his wrappers! Elizabeth was too shy to hold out her basket for candy so people would have to get up and put it in for her!

Here they are taking inventory of their goods!

And here is a video of how distracted they were counting their candy!

Gettin reeeeeeeall up in here

Annie's not kiddin around anymore. She went from rolling over to trying to sit up on her own within a few days!!! Go Annie Go!!!

I'm pretty sure she thinks she rules the house now....sitting in MarkMark's chair!
