Halloween 2011




We've been busy 'Halloweening' nearly all month.  I think the boys wore costumes more days than not during the past two or so weeks.  They have been in heaven! 

We went to the ZooBoo with friends, hit up a pumpkin patch with the ward, carved pumpkins, got spooked at the Children's Museum...



...and then got the whole fam decked out Star Wars style for our ward Trunk or Treat. 





Did I mention that we, the Dockter Crew, won the costume contest at church?  Ha.  We totally did.  I think little Yoda had something to do with it...that or the fact that we had TWO Darth Vaders.  Yes, two.  Because if Sam likes it, then Max likes it. 
Sam wants it.  Max wants it. 
Sam eats it..well you get it. 

Max surprised us last night though when he opted to wear the old Spiderman costume and a mohawk for trick-or-treating.




Eric and I traded off passing out candy and taking the boys around the neighborhood.  It was a great night. 



 

 And this little bug stayed inside and helped pass out candy to the nearly 100 trick-or-treaters who came to our door.


Halloween 2011 was a success!

I can take a guess which pumpkin Eric carved. I like the Star Wars theme...have you sat down to watch any of the movies yet?

Plus, I don't get how you get your boys to pose for the camera either. I get a lot of side profile shots over here.
