Happy Halloween!

We were gifted a ballerina tutu and slippers by a neighbor, so that became Madeline's costume this year. It's been a little chilly here so she started out wearing a hat and tights, too.

Abby hosted the playgroup for an afternoon Halloween party -- good times were had by the moms and the kids alike!

The playgroup dressed in their Halloween finery:
Wyatt the sweet pea, Gavin the bee, Catherine the Duke cheerleader,
Linus the skeleton, Madeline the ballerina, and Hayli in her festive onsie


We ended the day at Grandma & Grandpa L's. It was a yo-ho-ho kind of Halloween there with Cameron, Dawson and Beth all dressing as pirates. The older kids went trick-or-treating while Peyton and Madeline stayed behind. Madeline was so enthralled with the gauzy layers on Peyton's costume.
Cameron as Captain Hook, Dawson as Captain Jack Sparrow,
Beth as Elizabeth Swan (in the third Pirates movie when she's
held captive by the Chinese pirate lord), Peyton as Tinkerbell,
and Prima Ballerina Madeline.
