Halloween


Since Halloween is not my favorite the only way I will dress up is if we do a group costume. This year we decided to do Peter Pan. The boys love that movie. It's actually the only movie besides Cars that Jaxton will sit and watch all the way. And the best part is that it cost about $10 for all our costumes! 

Preston (Peter Pan)- Homemade shirt/hat- $4, Pants- $1 Goodwill, Shoes- his
Jaxton (Mr. Smee)- Hat (santa hat) -$2, Shirt Ebay $2, shorts- his, shoes- his
Patrick (Hook)- borrowed! $0 
Jess (Pirate)- All stuff I had $0
Lucas (Croccodile)- hat $1 


This was before our ward Trunk or Treat. Preston really got into the whole trick or treat concept. Jaxton...not so much. He was way overstimulated and wanted candy so anytime anyone would put candy in his bucket he would throw it out and whine. But he's 2 so what can you do. 












The next night, Halloween, we went out trick or treating around our neighborhood. We have the slowest trick or treaters EVER. It took us an hour to do 1 block, and thats with maybe half the houses giving out candy. They would just get distracted by the decorations and other people walking around. Jaxton did better that night but we're going to have to have a talk about stranger danger because he kept trying to walk into peoples houses when they opened the door. Overall it was a fun experience. Preston was adorable and kept saying "Happy Halloween" to people instead of trick or treat and Jaxton would give back candy that he didn't like and pick out something else. Such funny boys. 




Lucas wore his crab costume for trick or treating so he would be nice and cozy. The outfit is a newborn one and as you can see its tight. Yeah. He's already out of newborn sized things. So sad. 



And since their costumes were awesome, here are my siblings dressed up for Halloween!
