Halloween Part 2

The boys decided that they didn't want to be Cosmo and Timmy for the real Halloween day. It is so nice to have a dry run. We wanted to make sure that Kobie had a good time since he didn't really enjoy his costume for the Truck or Treat. Every day last week I would ask what they wanted to be every day it was different. Finally on Wednesday they decided that they both wanted to be Sonic the Hedgehog, from the video game. Thursday I was going to buy the material to make the costumes. Cole woke up on Thursday and the first thing out of his mouth was, "I want to be Diego." For those of you who don't know who Diego is, he is Dora the Explorers cousin. And if you don't know who Dora is you must live under a rock.
I was very happy about Cole wanting to be Diego, since he wears a blue shirt and pants. All I had to do was make a little vest and the rescue pack, which didn't take long at all. When Corey got home from New Orleans that night, 6:00, I was just starting to lay out the material for Kobie's costume. After looking at everything I asked Corey if we could go get Kobie a costume so I wouldn't have to stress out trying to get it done. So Kobie wasn't Sonic he was Darth Vader. He was so jazzed about it and could not wait for the next day, Halloween.

Things in Georgia start earlier than I am use to. We had trick or treaters at 5. At which point the boys ran up stairs to get their costumes on. We went to a friends house to start out the night. They had hot dogs for the kids, or anyone else who wants them, chili and then the rest of us bring treats to share. It is always fun, we went last year too. This year we had a little incident. Cole, our 3 yr old, threw a rock at Kobie, our 7 yr old and chipped his tooth. We were so upset. His tooth isn't as bad as it could be so we are greatful for that. But we had a firm talk with Cole about not throwing rocks or anything else at Kobie or anyone else. After it started to get dark we came back to our neighborhood and went trick or treating around our block. Oh my it was cold and the kids were fun to watch.Diego and Darth.Kobie as Darth Vader.
Cole as Deigo.

Since last week was a little crazy for us we didn't get a chance to carve our pumpkins before Halloween. So for an after church activity we carved them tonight. So it is a little late but it is the memories that I want the kids to have. They each chose their pumpkin and how they wanted the face, but I of course did the knife work.
We hope everyone had a Happy and Safe Halloween.

Cole of course had to try on Kobie's Darth Vader Costume, we thought that this picture was great.
