Honk-or-Treat

Dearest Buzz & Woody,

Do you know what would just thrill me to pieces?  If y'all dressed as famous duos every Halloween!  Jax, you & I shopped online together a few weeks ago and you were very opinionated about your costume.  Actually, you wanted a robot costume...but you were the most adorable robot ever last year.  You really liked the Buzz Lightyear costume though and I knew it would be "the one" as soon as I pictured a tiny Sheriff Woody at your side. 

Your first time in costume was at the church's "Trunk-or-Treat" event on Saturday.  I explained why we were getting dressed up and you, Jax, then kept referring to it as "Honk-or-Treat"! 


Tonight we dressed you up again as we walked the neighborhood with Deanna & Kristy. 


For the sake of next year:  order a size larger in costumes!!  Colt, we had you in an 18 month outfit and you were popping out up front and missing a few inches off the bottom.  Jax, this was a 3T, yet you needed another foot (or two) of material at the bottom!!  ((Maybe it would've helped if we hadn't lost the shin guard thingies that belong on the bottom of this.?.?.))

We visited the next street over from ours and they had an awesome little set up.  So many families had their dogs out with them and a lot of houses were really done up.


Here y'all are about to make your way down to the spooky houses...


Colt, you were definitely inspecting things carefully...


Jax, it definitely took some comforting to get you near the decor!


Once you realized that decorated yards = free candy, you were good to go!


Some of the homeowners even got into the spirit!


All by yourself!!


Deanna caught y'all in a proud moment : )


Goofball!


Sheriff Lightyear?


We got tired of putting your boots on over and over so we just let you walk barefoot.  Then the joke was that you looked more like Huckleberry Finn!


At least you were still all smiles at the end of the night!


Happy Halloween!!

  2. So cute! I joke sometimes that I only had a second kid so I could start doing sibling costumes. It's just the cutest thing ever to match the kids in coordinating outfits. And the one time a year that my hubs won't complain. =)
    May the Schwartz be with You
