This was our first Halloween party of the year - the NASA
Children's' Party at Space Center Houston. We've gone so many times that we have a "strategy". Dinner first, which is always pizza. Here are our well-behaved boys awaiting their dinner.
I love this shot of our man-of-mischief. He had been asking to wear a pirate costume for "pretend Halloween" and Spiderman for "real Halloween". So I ordered a pirate costume and just for fun, a Peter Pan costume for his sidekick, Charlie. Of course I could have predicted this outcome - Jack wanted to wear the Peter Pan costume. Good thing I didn't tell Charlie that I ordered the Peter Pan costume for him. He was happy to be Captain Hook.




I adopted a few new kids for trick-or-treating. I recently told someone that Emma was my first baby. Her mom was the first one of my friends to have a baby and I loved visiting her every week when Emma was a baby. Now look at our 9-year-old. (And did I mention she is brilliant?) At first, I was apprehensive when Jenny asked if we could take the girls around with our brood. 5 kids? But then I remembered something - THEY ARE GIRLS. Emma was great at herding our boys and keeping the group together. And Daisy was sweet as always.
Here Jack and Charlie are waiting for a girl to make them balloon ghosts, which were very cute. All night long, people called Jack "Robin Hood" which is probably why there is a picture of Peter Pan right on his costume.

This star made Josie smile for the first time all night. It was so cute. He was very sweet to her.
