Our Fourth Halloween

This was the first year that the boys did not dress in matching costumes. Sad moment for momma, but very exciting for the boys because they got to pick out their own costumes! Ben is currently obsessed with the cartoon Ben 10, so it was pretty clear who he was going to be for Halloween. Bryce took a little longer to decide, and after looking at Amazon, he decided to be Dragonoid, one of the aliens from Ben 10. I could not find a good Ben 10 costume, so our very talented Oma W came to the rescue! She made Ben the best Ben 10 jacket ever!

Check out the resemblance! :)

 That afternoon, we went to Southwest's annual Halloween celebration...

Dumb found Dumber at the party...

They were handing out one of the boys' all time favorite treats at the party!

Starting Halloween right... with lots of sugar!

They also got free Slurpees!

And, of course, lots of candy, too...

They played a bunch of fun carnival games...

And, even got to sign their names on a real Volkswagen Beetle with a trunk full of goodies...

 

Heading to the cafeteria for lunch...

That evening, we went to Aunt Beth's neighborhood to trick-or-treat. The boys were introduced to silly string!

The scary crew...

Finally time to start trick-or-treating!

So cute!

The boys came home with 13lbs of candy that night! As soon as they woke up the next day, they ran to the kitchen to check out their loot. Ben had to go potty first but then couldn't wait to put his pants back on!
