We had a super fun Halloween this year. Kai started out wanting to be a ninja, but then after discovering he couldn't bring weapons to school, he changed his mind and decided to be a cobra instead. I put together a costume using an old sweatshirt and some felt I had in my fabric box. My mom always made costumes for me and it's super fun to carry on that tradition. Cruz did school drop off as a cheeseburger which was also a hit. For trick or treating Kai and Cruz went as skeleton brothers. Mark was Frankenstein and I was a witch. Mark whipped up his "head" after work and did an awesome job. Kickin' it old school Halloween style. It was pouring rain but we braved the elements anyway along with some of Kai's best buddies. We were soaked by the time we got home but had a blast. Who can complain about free candy and a fun time with friends?!
Here's a few pictures from our day.
