Since there was a couple of opportunities for our kids to dress up this year for Halloween, they changed their minds on costumes between events. We went to a Harvest Festival at Ellyx's school where Ellyx was a Jack-o-lantern (which fit her smile perfectly), Mikey was Woody and Caden was Woody also (of course). They had fun playing games and decorating pumpkins with Mr. Potato Head pieces. Mikey loves Mr Potato Head so this was a fun activity for him. Mikey had originally wanted to be a rocket for Halloween and after searching for one with no luck, I had talked him into being an astronaut. Well, we found an astronaut costume but it was really too small so Michael set his mind on making a rocket.... So, for trick-or-treating we had Ellyx as a witch (same as last year, but she makes a pretty cute one), Caden as Woody (once again, of course), and Mikey as a rocket. It was quite the humorous experience.... Mikey had a hard time walking in the rocket so we had to have him "blast off" after each house for him to run to the next house where he would then suit up again at each driveway. All in all we had a pretty eventful Halloween and look forward to next year... we will see if Caden is still a die hard Toy Story fan!
