The One About Halloween 2012

   Picking out Halloween costumes is always a big deal.  I have kept all of Gavin's costumes, so we already have Ninja Turtle and Knight that would both fit Asher this year.  Of course, I tried to talk him into wearing one of those.  He didn't like that idea.  So we started looking online.  First, Gavin decided to be a red Power Ranger.  Asher wanted to be a werewolf, until he heard the Power Ranger idea.  Then he wanted to be a Power Ranger too.  Gavin was not going to accept that, so we teamed up and did our best to talk Asher back into the werewolf.  He finally agreed.  So we ordered costumes.  When they came, Asher took one look at the werewolf mask and changed his mind.  No way was he going to wear that heavy mask, so he announced that he was going to be a Ninja Turtle.  When Gavin got home from school that day, he thought the werewolf mask was really scary and changed his mind to werewolf.  Finally, we had a werewolf and Ninja Turtle.  The Power Ranger costume will hopefully work for next year.  :)

 The boys had a great time trick-or-treating.  Gavin had a big Halloween party at school that day.  That evening we went into town for the Trunk or Treat, and then spent a few hours walking around town.  It was a beautiful night.
