Dressing up Early for Halloween!

So we ended up putting on the kid's costumes for halloween early. The reason was because Brielle was terrified of her dinosaur costume and so I had Landon put it on (which he was more than willing to do) to let Brielle see that it was okay. Landon didn't want to take it off... he was having so much fun ROARING! at everyone and everything. He was just running around about a hundred miles per hour in the house clawing at things and making very scary unheard-of noises. It was so much fun!

Brielle giving Landon a hug after she calmed down from freaking out because Landon was in the dinosaur costume.


Then after Brielle started to see that Landon wasn't in pain from putting it on she was open to the idea and Landon went into his REAL costume for his halloween! A knight! He's my knight in shining armor! lol... I crack myself up so easily!



He is so stinkin cute!


Then before we put the kids down for bed... they discovered that they could hit me with the sword and I'd do exhaggerated things to make them laugh... they both were laughing so hard and took turns hitting me with the foam sword... so this was the result... I'm dead...




But you have to know that the fun wouldn't stop there if I had anything to say about it. I coerced my roommate into dressing up with me into our kid's costumes and then we had a whole lot of fun after the kids went to sleep... these are some of the shots we got. It's like we are kids again... oh and if you're wondering... yes that is the same costume that Landon wore in the pictures above.




Andrea's thinking, "GET ME OUTTA THIS INSANE ASSILYM!!!! THESE PEOPLE ARE CRAZY!"

Below are just a few of the things caught with the camera. We were having a blast so late at night, things that weren't normally funny were hysterical...

Our Samuri Moves!

Look at this amazingly sturdy sword... it's only $2.00 at Wal-Mart...


Andrea: You wanna mess with me???? Pain... lots and lots of Pain!

But all fun has to come to an end... the sword broke and right afterwards, Andrea peed her pants because she and I were laughing so hard after this picture...

The perfect ending to a Perfect Sunday... going to church... the photos in the fall scenery... dressing the kids up... dressing up ourselves... and then laughing so hard we have tears streaming down our face.

Who could ask for more?

You girls are funny. I'm glad you have someone to laugh so much with. She seems like a great friend.

Landon looks really cute in his costume. You guys should come celebrate Halloween with us. Remember the good ol' days of carving pumpkins and dressing up? What are you going to be for Halloween?

I am actually going to our ward trunk or treat and being one of the trunks that are handing out candy. I signed up for that a long time ago. I miss carving pumpkins with you guys! It was a blast... I loved the knife posing pictures too! I remember Korbin's first time with the pumpkin inerds... it was funny. Have you guys carved pumpkins yet?
