Ardis Halloween

We had alot of fun celebrating Halloween at our house. We always decorate our house inside & out. I forgot to add the photo's :( Then for FHE right before Halloween we carve our pumpkins. We LOVE doing this. The kids each pick out a pumpkin & decide how they want it to look. Bryan and I then help them, when & if they need it. They ALWAYS want help getting the guts out because they all think it is gross.


Savanah saying CHEESE! She is deciding how she wants her pumpkin.



Bryce wanted a New Orleans Saints pumpkin. This is what he & Bryan cut out.

Brayden also wanted to do a Football theme. The boys are really getting into Football with Bryan.


Sierra wanted a ghost. We all had alot of fun carving the pumpkins.


Here is our finished product. Savanah is the only one that went with the Traditional pumpkin. The boys represented our favorite football teams, The Texas Longhorns & The New Orlean Saints!




Bryan and I went to a costume party at our friends house & had alot of fun. Bryan went as Wimpy Hulk. I also wanted to go as a Marvel character, but they make them so immodest. So, I went as a Pink Lady instead.

Sierra wanted to be a Rock Star! (She got the idea from Savanah) She wasn't so sure about the sparkly eye shadow, so the picture didn't turn out to great, but this is the only one where I got the full outfit. Sorry Sierra!




Savanah came up with the Rock Star idea. So she of course picked Pink so Sierra had to go as a Purple Rock Star. They looked really cute. When I fixed their hair they got upset with me & told me I made their hair freaky, so I had to tame it down a bit. I guess they don't really understand how a Rock Star wears their hair.




Since Bryce loves Lego Star Wars he decided to go as someone from Star Wars. He stays away from costumes that require your face being painted or a hat. He loves the simple ones, which is definately his personality.



Then their is Brayden man. He is so much like his dad. He doesn't think it is dressing up if you don't paint your face. Speaking of, when I went as a Pink Lady I wanted Bryan to go as a character from Grease also. He told me that it wasn't dressing up enough. If you don't have paint all over you & your hair a different color it isn't dressing up enough. Like Father like Son! He made an Awesome Rock Man!



I couldn't resist grabbing the camera & taking a picture of the girls. They looked so cute sitting at the bar talking about their night & all their candy. Priceless!


So, for our trunk or treat I went as a Sailor. This is my best friend Cristina! I was excited about this costume because my sister made this costume for me when I was 23. You can't tell from the top but the pants were really tight (bell bottoms) when they were made 12 years ago and they still fit. Plus it was cold that night.


Deuce went as a Bee. Doesn't he look cute! My friend and I went to Old Navy's $2 Halloween Sale & got it for $2. I wasn't planning on dressing him up, even though the kids kept begging me too. But when I found it for $2 I couldn't pass it up.




So, on Halloween Bryan decided that he wanted to go as Don King. He had been growing his hair out & it usually will frow out but it wouldn't that night. So, I'm not sure what he was. He picked up the girls mic & started acting goofy, image that!
Anyway, A fun time was had by all!
Hope you guys had a Happy Halloween too!

Bryan,

You look a lot like Freddie Ulan with a dark tan more than Don King.

What a fun family! I love looking at all of your cute pictures and reading about what your family is up to!

The kids are getting so big, I love the picture of them in their jammies with their carved pumpkins! That would be a great tradition to start...you always give me lots of good ideas! Hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
