Halloween

This Halloween was unlike one I've ever seen - we had 3.5 inches of snow!  It was crazy.  We weren't even sure if we were going to go trick-or-treating, but the boys gave us no choice.  They picked out their own costumes (Grayson wanted to be creeper from Minecraft and Liam picked out a dinosaur costume that makes it look like he is riding the dinosaur).  The morning the boys were wearing their costumes to school they both decided they did not want to wear the costumes they picked out.  It was very frustrating because they told me this as we were walking out of the house.  Grayson ended up skipping the parade at his school because we were heading out of town for EIU's homecoming and he wanted to leave before the parade.  Liam ended up using Grayson's Captain America costume from last year for his school's indoor parade.  For actual Halloween the boys used their costumes from last year (Liam was Thor - which was too small and Grayson wore Captain American).  We took the kids out trick-or-treating, but they didn't last very long.  Liam only made it to about 10 houses and headed home to hand out candy - he had fun doing this.  Luckily JuJu came over and took Grayson for another 20 minutes because he was not ready to quit.  Overall the boys had a lot of fun and brought home plenty of candy.  This Halloween will definitely be one we remember.
