Halloween

Yes, I know Halloween was a week ago. I'm slow.

Halloween was a pretty crazy day for us. It fell on a Wednesday, which is our crazy day anyways. Sadie has her dance class and preschool right in a row (we have 15 minutes to get home from dance, change, eat lunch, and be to preschool), so pair that with costume parties in both classes and one very sugar-fueled little girl? It was a bit insane.

We also had to make time to head to Kevin's work for their awesome trick-or-treat. And since our ward didn't do a trunk-or-treat this year, we got to trick-or-treat around our neighborhood with our friends in the ward, which I loved. Reminded me of the good old days of my childhood when I'd roam the streets knocking on as many doors as possible. Good times.

The girls, pre-costume.

The costume situation this year was pleasantly un-stressful. Sadie wanted to be a pirate, but only if she could be Izzy, the girl pirate from the Disney show Jake and the Neverland Pirates. So we found her an outfit, added some bling to a bandanna, put together a little bag of pixie dust (a must for Izzy the pirate), and called it good. I think she looked pretty dang cute, if I do say so myself. And Ellie is pretty self-explanatory. Minnie Mouse is pretty popular with the 2 and under crowd in our house, so it wasn't much of a stretch to figure out what Ellie would be. Thanks to Kmart for providing us with this adorable $10 costume. :)

These would be perfect shots of Sadie if we hadn't had a little Minnie Mouse photo-bomber in both of them...
