Halloween 2017

Kicking off this year's Halloween festivities...

We started at my school that I teach at! Ben stayed home with Drew and we were able to pick up Ayrton and Zaydee and off we were to Oxford! The kiddos had so much fun playing all of the fair games and it was pretty neat for them to see me in action as Ms. Morin and for them to meet my 3rd graders!

Z and E are digging for skeleton bones...

Ring toss on the witch's hats...

Playing on this homemade Plinko board. (I love Plinko!)

The girls went through the hoops multiple times!

Scary tatoos!

And to finish off the night, we waited in line for the Haunted House. The PTO turns our Media Center and outside courtyard into a spooky haunted house. It does get pretty scary so there are these angel fairies (middle school girls dressed in fairy costumes) that you can choose to get and all of the "scarers" know not to jump out at you and instead are friendly. All night the boys were all about nixing the fairies but then they got to the doors and it was angel fairies for all of us. :) One of my favorite old 3rd graders was our fairy and she was great but it was still pretty spooky!

The next day was sugar cookie time while the boys were out at soccer.

Ellie is such a good helper in the kitchen. If you ask her what she wants to be when she grows up she will always tell you she will run "Elle's Sandwich Shop." She has a menu and a place picked out on Rochester Rd. (The old Outback Steakhouse) and everything. LOVE this girl.

Somebody took this shot for us at their soccer game and I love it!

The next morning we are in a pretty good routine of church and then off to the Big Boy brunch buffet with all of us! Here is our weekly corner spot.

And now the cookies have cooled and the boys have left for another soccer game, it is time to frost and decorate our pumpkin cookies!

Drew kept saying he was not scary but a friendly ghost. 

Monday night we were all about getting our carve on!

Drew Boo still painting this year!

Then it's HALLOWEEN Eve!!! 

We have 1 Ladybug Girl (from the book series),

1 super, strong superhero,

and a Heisman trophy winner!!

This year, the Floreno's had to cancel their Halloween party, so a few families stopped by first and together we were off to begin trick-or-treating! 

We made it out for almost 2 hours!

Something about Drew's wobble with his big coat and cape over it reminded me of E.T.'s wobble and it was cracking me up!

The last house before heading home!

And one more look into Papa's candy bowl!

A Morin tradition...Sorting and categorizing the goods. For the first time, the kiddos wanted to combine all of their candy.

My little baby looking way too old already. What a handsome guy...

It was a good night!
