High Flying Halloween

When I asked Dash what he wanted to be for Halloween, he said he wanted to be an airplane. Well, actually he made his airplane sound. Assuming his answer was just a fleeting whim, I asked him a few days later. This time he responded with "Airplane!" and Liam took up the cause, answering the same when I asked him. Same thing a few days after that. So airplanes they were! The rest of us are aviators (and really, they are pilots too).

Sean loved making the costumes (and he did an incredible job) and the twins love wearing them. I loved not sewing anything.

They're a little cumbersome to wear indoors, but outside they're just awesome.

This one Sean labeled as the Red Baron.

This is some other American plane that Sean knows the name for and I don't.

Grey got to be a pilot in an aviator hat that's much too big for him.

He really didn't like it.

Here's a little behind-the-scenes action for you. It's all made of diaper boxes!

So much fun to play in!

And apparently a good place to meditate.

We went to the church's trunk-or-treat over the weekend. They caught on to the idea of gathering candy real quick. Dash liked to plop the treats in his bag but Liam liked to hold on tight until his little hand couldn't hold any more.

I stayed at the car and passed out candy to all the other kiddos.

There was someone dressed as Santa Clause and now the boys constantly talk about Santa giving them candy for Halloween. I think they might be a little confused come Christmas-time.

My three boys sure are having a high flying Halloween!
