Happy Halloween!!

Spiderman and Anikin getting some loot.

Enjoying a treat!

 

On Sunday night we had a great time painting pumkins while Michael carved one for our front porch.  Hutchinson hasn't been around paint very much, so I told Michael we really need to watch him, so he doesn't eat it.  I put a huge squirt of paint down, Hutchinson sticks his brush in it and RIGHT in his mouth it went.  Whooops.  Thankfully he didn't do it again.  Finnean took his painting very seriously and turned his pumpkin green.  Hutchinson went for a little more color but they both had a lot of fun! 

This is Michael's handy-work.  Finnean wanted our Jack-O-Lantern to just like the card that Grandma Lisa sent...I would say that Michael rocked it!  Way to go! 

Happy Halloween from the Waglers!

 

As you can see...Hutchinson was the sweet little lion around and Finnean was Spiderman!  He LOVED being Spidey and took it very seriously.  That kid cracks me up.

 

Finnean had his first door to door trick or treat experience last night. In Des Moines and the surrounding areas they call it Beggar's Night and everyone goes out on the 30th...I don't think this is normal but what can you do! Spiderman and the neighbor boy ran ahead of us and went up to doors, ringing bells and yelling Trick or Treat! After Spiderman would pick his candy he would yell back to me "MOM!!! A TWIZZLER!!!" M and M's were other favorite. He was pretty cute and most of the time remembered to say thank you.  The lion was just along for the ride in the stroller and he didn't seem to mind at all.

We were all having a lot of fun until Spiderman was running and didn't see a step down and ran right of the sidewalk. His little friend said kindly, "It's okay, you are Spiderman and you are strong!!" Finnean responded....still crying that he "just wanted more candy!" So off they went to get a few more pieces.

After the fall, Spiderman was done and Finnean was back. He really wanted to hand out some candy, so we sat outside and enjoyed one treat and handed out candy to some trick or treaters that stopped by. Finnean thought it was pretty cool and made sure to tell them "Just take one"---he must have heard that on his travels of the night.  It was a pretty fun adventure.

 

The boys dressed up a lot this year.  We went to our library's Trick or Read, hit up a Trunk or Treat on Saturday night and then Finnean got to wear his costume to school.  Not a lot is cuter than a bunch of 3-4 year old dressed up in costumes.  He thought it was pretty awesome to be Spidey at school!  Hopefully some of those pictures will make it to the blog soon...
