Trick or Treat

When you are five years old, few things are as exciting as an holiday that involves both dressing up AND eating obscene amounts of candy. Cameron was thrilled with his store-bought Star Wars costume, while I was thrilled to get to make Matthew a cute R2D2 costume. Cameron somehow believes that his face mask is a "voice changer," and repeatedly asked me if he sounded scary with his mask on. Of course, we played along and he continues to be blissfully unaware that his voice merely sounds muffled behind his mask.

We were joined by our friends, Batman and the Incredible Hulk. Despite taking countless photos, this was the best group shot. Getting four kids to stand still and smile is, well, impossible.When I tried to get a photo of my two cuties, Matthew was too concerned about the muscular green fellow nearby to pay attention.
Finally, at 9pm, our sugar-crazed preschooler and our overstimulated toddler are asleep. Now to dig into Cameron's bag of candy . . .

The 4 of them are adorable. I'm amazed that Matthew would even allow the Hulk to be in the same yard as him.
