Some fairy tale characters went to a Trunk or Treat at their church.
The Dragon was only a temporary presence (I told Cory he just had to take a picture...this was before anyone even saw him!)
The Princess wept (Ellie was so sad and under the weather the entire evening. Poor girl)
And the Knight was ever so brave and made his Fairy Mother a little sad because he is growing up so fast. He proclaimed it to be the "Best Halloween Ever!" (he went around trunk or treating with his friends and got TONS of candy)
We have always been able to dress up as a family (much to Cory's discontent)...
I thought that this year we wouldn't be able to make it happen. Brig and Ellie both had opinions about what they wanted to be. Brig wanted to be a hunterman, then a ghost, and Ellie wanted to be a cat and then Tinkerbelle. So, I just tried to be ok with it...Cory tried not to jump for joy;) Then at the last minute Brig decided he wanted to be knight and convincing Ellie to be a princess was a pretty easy sell (she did insist on being Cinderella instead of just a normal princess though) and Brig even assigned Cory and I characters too. (I think he might like the whole family dressing up just as much as I do!!!) He really wanted Cory to be a dragon so he could fight him. So I told Cory a while ago that I would only make him wear a hat or something simple...he thought this was a little overboard this year but when I told him how much Brig wanted it...he conceded for a picture:)
So cute and such a fun night. We passed out cotton candy that we actually made right in front of the kids...it was pretty exciting:)
You guys look great!! It sounds like Cory likes Halloween as much as Nick. :) Your kids are adorable!
ReplyDeleteCute family picture. Cory looks so excited. :) I love how Ellie is looking up at Brig in the last picture. So sweet.
