Our first Halloween activity was the Trunk or Treat at the school. Last year we did this cramazing maze. ( BTW, Cramazing is my word mash of Crazy+Amazing. ) We did not have the man power to pull it off this year though. Bummer but for once it was nice to show up to an event that I did not assist in planning, help set up, organize, volunteer for or run. We just went, had a nice time and went to sushi after.
Costumes... HeaBug is Merida from Brave.
JT is Westley from the Princess Bride.
Mr and Mrs B as Mary Poppins and Bert. We got a lot of wonderful comments on our costumes. A quick shout out to Breezer who sculpted Westley's fencing foil handle and created the awesome burn wound on his shoulder from liquid latex. She also customized Mary's hat, tie and Bert's chimney sweep broom!
It would not have bee successful without her!
Trunk or Treat Fun!
The kids loved getting to see their pals and going round and round and round stockpiling the candy.
The next night, we went to a Trunk or Treat at our church. It was awesome and we had a great time. The same night, Breezer and Joanna went to the Long Beach Zombie walk. That's her, with the liquid latex.
HeaBug's preschool had a trunk or treat the morning of Halloween. It was so cute to see the little ones in their costumes.
We went trick or treating that night. Breezer and Joanna stayed at the house to pass out candy to the mountains of trick or treaters that we were expecting. They didn't come. We hardly got any. I guess there are fall backs to living on a nice, quiet and out of the way street. Not many passers by. She looked awesome with her Dia De Los Muertos makeup though!
(We donned moustaches for trick or treat and by the end of the night, Merida needed Daddy to hold her and wear her wig... because her feet hurt and she was sweaty)
Kids had a blast trick or treating, we have more candy than we know what to do with....
If you find yourself in the same predicament, consider shipping some candy to our troops.
Here's the address:
