Monkeys, Ghouls and Astronauts

The kids were really excited for Halloween this year! We let them pick out their own costumes. Duncan had originally picked out Captain America, which was really cute, but Mike got him a really cool flight suit from the Air and Space Museum on his trip to DC, so Duncan was anxious to be an Astronaut.

Beatrice loved her ghouly costume ;) though she didn't want to leave the mask on, and the gloves we ended up pinning to her shoes because she didn't want to leave those on either! Dylan was a monkey. Maria decided not to dress up at the last moment, she was going to be a vampire, but the fake blood tasted awful ;) They all had tons of fun trick-or-treating and then we all had fun eating a bunch of candy when we got home!!
