Halloween Hay Ride

For Halloween this year, I took the kids to my parent's house again to do the annual hayride through the neighborhood. It makes trick or treating so much easier! And we got tons of good candy - only 16.2 pounds this year. I sent a bunch with my sister to take to work and some to my Grandmother as well but we still brought plenty home with us. Levi was a pirate this year and Mattie was Minnie Mouse.

Levi's costume was pretty simple. A long sleeved striped shirt that I bought a size big from Wal-Mart that he can grow into and use, a piece of red fabric for the sash (that I already had), and his sword, eye patch, and hook all leftover from his pirate birthday party. Voila!

I just bought Mattie this dress and ears set from Wal-Mart, from the dress up section in the toy department. She is a happy girl. I just put a long sleeve pink shirt and some pants on underneath and she was good to go!

I tried to get them to take a picture together. This was about the best I got.
