The Grandma holiday

A few weeks before Halloween, I was talking to my mom and we realized that after having a few October babies and a fall trip last year, she had been with us for nearly all of our Halloweens!  So we decided on a last minute trip and she came out to visit for Halloween again.  It is now the official Grandma holiday around here!

This year we had a witch (with Pippy Longstocking braids for fun), Optimus Prime, Spider Man, and a zebra.  Oh, and I was a witch also, and had a Ghostbuster for my date!  We had fun at a church Trunk or Treat and at the various school activities...

















Last year Thunder scared the dickens out of the small kids in our neighborhood.  He dressed up in a scary mask and just sat on the dark porch...people didn't know if it was real or not, and then he would growl! This year I set it all up to look the same... but it was fake this year people!  Haha.


 Thunder took the kids around on the John Deere.  It was fairly warm that night.



Nice shot Sunrise!


 Grandma got to help us with a photo shoot of a new CGull bag for the Cricut machine.


And we had a little photo shoot of Grandma with Sunrise!  It was dark and the lighting wasn't the best... but we had great subjects, don't you think?

So fun! I love all of your costumes. Cloudburst's hair and tights are awesome. Whoever did the face painting did a great job. So good to see pictures of your mom. Tell her I said "Hi!"
