Happy Halloween!!


This year the boys costumes were centered around Madison's. I found this cute "Army Diva" costume and thought it would be fun for everyone to match. I was amazed when I found real army fatigues for kids. I was very excited about the costumes this year. Surprisingly, the boys weren't.


I thought green hair gel is Fun.....the boys wanted it washed out as soon as possible!

I thought they looked cute matching...Caleb wanted to be Superman, again.

I thought Madison would be sad about her costume....she was the most excited!!

So much for what I think!








Let me introduce you to my little friend.....
OCHO!
Ethan became a proud daddy of a tarantula we named Ocho. At school they had a unit study of Spiders. (Another way of saying Halloween!) They had a raffle for the spider. Parents had to sign a permission slip. So I signed it thinking...there's no way he will win! Well, the ugly thing was at our house by that evening.



While we were on vacation it got out of it's cage!! This humongous spider was loose in my house. My mom kindly told me it won't kill us- it just bites. Well, later they found Ocho. It was sitting next to our fake tarantula from Halloween. I guess he was lonely. I am amazed that we found the spider.

I would dump this thing in the mountains if I could. But Ethan is soooooo excited to have Ocho. I better get the "Mom of the Year" for this!
