SUGAR OVERLOAD

On Wednesday we went to a Halloween themed party. So the kids got to dress up again! Three of the four kids opted to pick something else out of the Halloween bucket to wear instead of their costumes for this year. They thought it was totally awesome to be something different! Chloe was a cat, Alex was Bumblebee from Transformers, Cooper was a scarecrow, and Nick stayed Darth Maul. Even though it was kind of chilly they spent most of the night out in the bounce house, it had a slide. On the way home they told me that was a real fun party.

Thursday was their school parties. When I took Nick to school we stayed in the parking lot for a bit to see what Chloe and Alex's teachers were dressing up as. So on the way home Alex and Chloe decide that I should dress up for their party too. I decided to be a 'cool' mom, so I gave into their whim. It was fun and all the kids at school got a kick out of it!

Nick, Chloe, and Alex all had their party at the same time and they all wanted me to go to theirs. So Cooper and I were party hopping all afternoon. Cooper got to have treats in all 3 classes. I think he had 3 cupcakes! They had a costume parade, played Halloween games, made some cute Halloween projects, and Alex's class even got to go trick-or-treating. It was an afternoon full of lots of sugar and fun!!

Today we enjoyed a lazy day with NO school and then headed to my dad's office party. I think that Halloween is definitely their favorite holiday, they went all out!! We went from office to office trick-or-treating. There were themed areas which made it super fun for the kids. After they loaded up on tons of candy they headed outside for lots more fun. This was the best Halloween party ever! They had pony rides, a bounce house, face painting, lots and lots of food and treats, and the best part was it was all free! All of their cousins were there. They had fun running around together and Grandpa had fun showing off all his grand kids!
