Halloween

this year for halloween i wanted the whole family to be dressed up in a theme.  
the husband nixed that idea.  
so instead, i got the bargins of the century and scored these three adorable costumes at the consignment store for $8.  total.  
sweet.  
(do people still say sweet? i digress)
so elise was a watermelon, clara was a strawberry and cole man was the always awesome scooby doo.  
(not that he knew who scooby doo was since he is too young to watch that cartoon what with all the ghosts and monsters and crookery that takes place.  but he was super happy being a dog and knew that we used to have a dog named scooby...which also led to some interesting discussions such as, "scooby got all better in heaven and now he can come back to waco, right mom?" 
uummmmm, not quite.  gotta love that child innocence)
anyway, the costumes were a big hit.






we went to chipotle for their halloween burrito special, a campbell tradition, and then we went to our church's fall festival.  we had a great time and cole spent the entire time going back and forth between 4 bounce houses.  
(i really need to invest in a bounce house to expel the energy in this child)
earlier today i also baked 60 mini cupcakes to take to the festival. 
between cole's party last weekend, the fall festival and making another batch to take to cole's class tomorrow, i have made over 120 cupcakes in the last week.  
i can't believe that i am actually saying this, but i think i am all cupcaked out.  
good thing i have cole's halloween candy to fall back on.
 happy halloween!!!!
