Halloween

 We had several Halloween events, or really more importantly, several opportunities to dress up.  They had a superhero day at school during spirit week so Lily went as Catwoman.
 
 
 Ingrid took the kids to Boo at the Zoo.  It was really cold that day so we had to do costumes that would work with coats.  Lily went as Rudolph, and William was an engineer.
 
 
 On Halloween night, Lily and William went out as the Sugar Plum Fairy and the Nutcracker.  Emilia stayed with mom & dad and handed out candy. 
 
 
 I thought this was one of our best years yet.  William was at that super-fun age of "getting" Halloween and LOVING the concept!  He was so excited.  He would yell "Thank you!" and "Happy halloween!" at every house.

 Lily was in two parades this fall with her dance school.  For this parade, they dressed up for Halloween.  The colors of her dance school are pink and black, and I thought her sock hop dress was appropriate for a dance school.
 
 
 The original costumes planned for Halloween were Clara (Lily), the Nutcracker (William) and the Sugar Plum Fairy (Emilia) (pictured below).
