Cuteness galore...

The Sanofsky family loves Halloween, Mark and I started dating around Halloween 7 years ago--7 years and 3 kids, wow that is fast right? It was even more shocking when we had only known each other for 5 years and had 3 kids!
Halloween started this year with a costume parade at the kids preschool, I knew what the kids were going to dress up as but I was a little behind on getting the details together so Addy and Katie wore different costumes. I had to bribe Marcus with candy to get him to put his on.





Then Friday night our church had a 'trunk or treat'. Addy wasn't feeling well so she wouldn't put her costume on--there is no bribing Addy, either she does it or she doesn't. It took the kids two cars to learn exactly how it works and they were hooked.

She was cute enough to get candy anyway.

Saturday we carved a pumpkin with the kids.






The big day.
Here we have Addy as 'Princess Tiana' (Princess and the Frog) and Katie as her sidekick 'Lotte,' Marcus was supposed to be the frog prince but we could not find a frog costume anywhere, so he is the alligator 'Louis' (ignore the fact that he has wings--which would really make him a dragon).






With the 'trunk or treat' fresh in their minds, they didn't need much help. Addy and Marcus would follow Katie to the door, she would ring the bell. They would hold out their little pumpkins for the candy and say "trick or treat" (Marcus and Addy to the best of their ability-sooo cute!). Addy was a sneaky little one and would slip her hand in their bowl while they were giving Katie and Marcus candy and kept taking candy until they (or I stopped her).

After an hour and a half they were all tired so we came home and hung out with our neighbors in the driveway handing out candy until bedtime.

Fun costumes. I almost got the dragon one for my little guy! And I 've decided I want another daughter just so I can name her Lotte! :)
