Trick? or Treat!!

Here we have Bumblebee Transformer, a Devilish Ladybug, and a Fire Engine Guy (not a Fireman.. Cole told me he was a Fire Engine Guy, 'cause Fire Engine's can't drive themselves!)

 Happy as can be, and ready to get some treats!  But first we had a pre-party at the Sevins for some delicious smoked food and other complimentary goodies!

 Miss Ladybug was very happy to be joining her brothers.. she just loved her costume, which is really nice because if she didn't like the wings it could've got ugly!

Her shoes weren't quite the right size.. so they fell off a bunch, but she has such wide feet.. target shoes in a size smaller was like Cinderella's step sisters fitting into the glass slipper!

Cole was not a huge fan of his hat.

Caden was in love with his costume.. he's been waiting all year to be Bumblebee!

Cheese!  Why do they insist on saying this for pictures?!   I tried getting them to say candy.. but Cora couldn't quite get that word.. and Cole.. well he likes doing things his own way! 

Here they are again!  Our pumpkins.

The gangs all here! (minus Cole and Cora.. they didn't make it in)  We had an army of trick-or-treaters.. that Sevin clan is a big group!

 The girls!
Three of the boys...

Cora was a hoot at the door.. the very first house she got candy at she held it up and laughed with glee!  She was so excited!  With prompting she said a Cora form of "trick-or-treat" at just about every house, followed by a "thank you".  She carried her pumpkin bag like a purse hooked over her arm.

Caden was a steam engine running from house to house, he never tired.  Cole had a belly ache so alternated strolling and running.  They all had so much fun! and it was so fun to watch them enjoying it all.  Halloween is so great.. except that we have all this candy which keeps drawing me to the bowl!  Mmm.. peanut butter cups!  Skittles!  Almond Joy!  I love them all!
  

And then they got to go through their loot.. Cora had a lollipop open before she even sat down and Caden was initiating trades in his favor with Cole.. smart boy!  It was a great night.. we all had fun

Happiest little "Fire Engine Guy" and very patient "Devilish Lady Bug" standing at the door waiting for her treat. How girlie of her to carry her pumpkin like that. It looks a little heavy. Got to love it!!! If they could only stay this age.

I love our big groups for Halloween! They will remember these fun times for the rest to of their lives I hope! Such a fun day.

Love the pic of the three of them and Cora saying cheese. :)
