Happy Halloween!!

We had a fun year again this year. We started off on the Saturday before Halloween with Grandma and Grandpa Pace's Annual Halloween Party. Sadly I have no pics right now from that because Gary had my camera and I could not get my mom's email to work to send the ones from her camera. I will try to get them later. Then Monday morning the boys got to wear their costumes to school. They were very excited to do this and had been waiting for weeks for Halloween to come. Then after that we went Trick-or-Treating at Gary's office. They let the kids come and go from cubicle to cubicle. Boston and Preston had a lot of fun doing this and got so much candy. They really could have been done then they had so much. But nope they wanted to go out and go Trick-or-Treating. Before they went out we carved a couple of pumpkins. They aren't the greatest but the two were stencils leftover from last year that I wanted to use up and then Gary of course had to do a San Francisco one. This year I didn't have to buy any costumes. My sister-in-law had sent a bag full of ones her boys had used in the past. Boston right away knew he wanted the Batman one. Preston had to try on all of them in the bag and then couldn't decide to be one which I am not sure what it was but he thought it was a "motorcycle man" so we went with that. He wore that one at my parents but then for school and trick-or-treating he chose another Batman costume. Thanks again Ty and Connor for sending all your great costumes.
Here they are in their Batman costumes.
Preston is the all black Batman and Boston is the grey Batman.

And here are the pumpkins that we carved. Boston and Preston were so excited to carve the pumpkins. We had them for about 3 weeks and everyday they would ask when we could carve them.

oh my gosh, adorable. Makes me miss the boys at that age. Seems like it was just last year they were wearing those costumes. SOOOO happy you are getting use from them! Love the SF pumpkin too. Way to go Gary!!! Last year we did the Starbucks Halloween party and totally could have stopped after that too. This year it was actually on Halloween and it would have been too exhausting of a night to drive back from Seattle and get them out the door so we passed on it this year. Glad to see you have survived all the candy. We'll be sleepless in Seattle for at least another couple weeks until all this candy works it's way out of their bodies...
