Halloween, Halloween, Trick or Treat!!!


All the kids, Seth, Rhett, Ashtyn, Kensie, (Jason and Shila's) Olivia and Jocelyn.

Just a quick post...

The whole family dressed up for Halloween. (even Brandon which is amazing) My cousins were having a party later in the evening, and costumes were manditory. Of course the kids had theirs. Ashtyn, Brandon and I went to see "Wicked" this past summer. We all loved it, so Ashtyn decided she wanted to be
"Galinda with a Ga" from the show. She chose to be the "Popular" Galinda. Seth was super easy, just the "Grim Reaper", no make up just covered head to toe. Liv's new obsession is cowgirls, she believes she is one, so we dressed her up as a "Cowgirl". I thought her costume was really cute. Rhett chose "Spiderman", and continues to be him daily. Our tradition has always been to dress as Michael Jordan for baby's first Halloween. This being because none of the children were named Jordan much to Brandon's dismay, so they would get a moment to honor him anyway. Unfortunately during our last move, I put the little jersey in a very safe place. I just don't remember where that is. Needless to say, no Jordan for Jocelyn. Yes, this has caused some hard feelings, Brandon was considering divorce. Last minute I got Jocelyn a little "Pea in the Pod". I will keep the search on for the lost jersey. Don't worry, Jordan was still with us this Halloween, thank goodness.


I told Brandon he could dress as a hippie with me or he could do something else. All I have heard about for the past 13 years is when he dressed up as Michael Jordan in high school. Lucky for me , he decided to do it again. The jersey was a little tighter than it was 16 years ago but we worked it out.

Brandon and I. I was just a boring ol' hippie. The sad part is everything but the vest, sunglasses and earrings came from my everyday attire. Hmmm....


Out trick or treating!

Ashtyn and Joce at the end of the night. Ashtyn is my right hand gal.

LOL. If I remember right i think that his jersey was even a little big on him 16 years ago. Your kids all look cute! I need to get a picture of them from you sometime soon.
