This week of Halloween activities has been crazy!!! Kyler and Damon decided a while ago to be The Hulk and Captain America. We tried for a month to get Radley to be Thor or Ironman to go with the others, but he was determined to be Buzz Lightyear! He would not budge!! So he got what he wanted! Oma got the costumes here just in time for the boys to be ready for the first party of the season at the local movie theater. They had a canned food drive and showed The Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown for the kids. They were so excited to get to wear their costumes for the first time! We had our church Trunk-or-Treat, and they got to trick or treat for the first time this year. They boys don't need any more reasons to love Halloween!!! It is Kyler's favorite, and he has rubbed off on the other two! They have all been wearing their costumes all week. They have them on at all waking moments!
We've decided pumpkin carving is not for parents to enjoy! It's a lot of work! The boys are no help and are extremely impatient! Kyler wanted something spooky, Damon wanted a spooky dog, and Radley didn't really care about anything except having a pumpkin! We ended up with a scary face, a bat, and a Trick or Treat night scene on the other. Even though it was a pain, the boys love their pumpkins, and we can't wait until the boys can be helpful (without cutting themselves).

| Watch out bad guys! Don't worry Radley is trying to figure out how to make his wings work! |
 |
| He will throw that shield the second he senses danger! |
 |
| We should have told Oma to add some muscles to his legs because they look extra skinny with his big muscles. |
 |
| Still a little unsure of this dressing up stuff in public! |
 |
| This seems to be Radley's nervous position while he figures out what is going on around him. |
 |
| Damon walking around saving the world! |
 |
| Cousins all dressed up. |
 |
| Eating something of substance before tons of candy! |
 |
| Mary Poppins, Bert and a penguin. |

 |
| Cary Shane and Diana's monster trunk. We didn't go quite as elaborate at most others. I didn't make much effort. Maybe next year, maybe! |
 |
| Radley trick or treating with Daddy. The other two boys went on their own, and I handed out candy at our car. After the first car he went up to every car once he realized they would give him candy, even the scary ones! |
 |
| They were some happy campers after getting tons of candy! And yes, that's as close to a Halloween costume as I got this year. I do have a belly the size of a pumpkin! |
 |
| Our newly returned redneck hillbilly Uncle Keyan. He played the banjo for everyone as they walked around. |
 |
| The Spooky Face |
 |
| The cheesey smiles continue. Radley was too busy throwing a fit to take a picture, but they loved their pumpkins. |
