Halloween 2009

Treats for our Sweets on Halloween morning...

Hadlee was just as excited for Bubba to get a treat

as herself. (Not sure why I started giving Halloween gifts...

well, honestly, I couldn't resist that Halloween doll!)

A Halloween baby & Star Wars characters!!!

Guess who we didn't forget...
Baby Boy Love already has a Halloween

shirt for next year!

(Please ignore my Halloween sleep shirt! ha ha!)

That afternoon Hadlee & I baked a cake and

cupcakes....she's quite helpful as a taster!Mommy, I promise I didn't get into the icing.Finally, it was SHOW TIME!!!
Ben10 & Strawberry Shortcake were READY!Well, after Strawberry Shortcake got over

the fact that she had to wear the wig and hat!!!First we trick or treated at Mamaw's.

Strawberry was still having issues with the

wig...so Mamaw came through!!!Then we hit Grandomther & PaPa's.

I love my mother's excitement...she's seen

them in their costumes plus she knew

we were on our way!!! Such a grandmother!Next stop was Mrs. Gingerich's house...

and lookee there, Co Co answered the door!Walker loves Mrs. G...The gorgeous ballerina princess,

Kate Kate, was also there!!! Just one more precious pic for the rehearsal dinner video...Last stop on our trick or treat travels...Mrs. Schemeltekopf's! How wonderful are his teachers to invite the students over!!! LOVE her.

Once we were back home, it was time for some good old fashion Hoodie style picture taking and trick or treating!!!

Sweet Little Hoodies 2009... Walker was really into character. Imagine that!!!

Co Co and Kate Kate joined us for

the rest of the night...

one of my favorite Halloween traditions!

Love it...

another picture for their rehearsal dinner, too!Walker's buddy from pre-k also joined us!Probably my favorite costume all night...

you go, Lukey Boy!!!I have a picture like this from every year

since we moved into the Hood...I have the most amazing friends in the whole wide world...Really, I do!!!Hadlee was so not into trick or treating!
She asked after three houses if we were done!

When you only eat orange Starburst or plain

M&M's, trick or treating just isn't that exciting!

Ben10, on the other hand, was thrilled for

Daddy to continue on with him. When he

got home, he sorted his candy into groups!WE LOVE YOU, BEN 10!!!

Wonder what Baby Love will be next year?!?

Hadlee wants to be Ruby and the baby Max.

Walker wants him to be a Star Wars character.

Go figure on that one!!!

We had sooooo many trick or treaters that

we finally had to close our blinds

and turn out the lights.

Didn't stop these wild things though...

they may have been done with the treating,

but NOT the tricking!!!

Haddie was convinced that Pumpkin Man needed to take a bath with her!

They always manage to have a good time!

A Happy, Happy Halloween, Indeed!
