Let's Go to the Hop!

I was so excited to dress Owen and Emmaline this Halloween, especially since they are old enough to toddle around and enjoy it! I really don't know how to label their costumes: Sock Hop, Grease, James Dean...it was hard to pick! Vince did a great job slicking back Owen's hair, and Owen didn't mind it a bit. I think he knew he looked "cool."

The Friday afternoon before Halloween, they had a blast invading Vince's Deloitte office downtown for their family Halloween celebration. They had trick-or-treating, "haunted cubes" and a cake walk (we didn't participate in that, but took a peek at the yummy prizes!). Emmaline, who normally still uses a pacifier at night, has brought back the daytime habit off and on since she's been in the hospital, so she's sporting it in a few of the pictures.

Too cool for school.

Toddle toddle toddle...

"I don't have enough fingers for my loot!"

"Soooo, why don't we just save time and I'll take this bucket?"

On Halloween, Bianca had a litte gathering at her house, and we were the first to arrive, so we took plenty of pictures before the kids got too distracted. :) They were the only kids there besides baby Violet, so they loved the attention!

Emmaline: "I said, LOOK at my cupcake bag!"

The kids: "Why are the 'rents in this picture? How lame!"

Waiting for the party guests to arrive.

Owen had a comb in his back pocket for touch-ups (and to chew on).

SUPER VIOLET!
