Every Halloween for the last few years, we sat outside with our neighbors and had a big feast while we passed out candy. We brought out chairs, coffee tables, etc....and snuggled in for a night of chatting and commenting on little kid's costumes.
In Georgia, people don't celebrate Halloween. In fact, it is considered sacrilegious by most. At school, we could not do anything Halloween related. Although not the same as our Sweethorn bash, we went to the US Embassy to trick or treat around the offices and play a few games in the lobby. On the actual day of Halloween, we went to a friend of AL's for a party. The kids had a blast.
Here is one of the rooms from the party....they used black light!
Lucas has worn the same Spider-man costume for 2 years now. Not for Halloween, mind you, but just so he could fight all of the evil lurking around our house. The costume started off way too big for him two years ago. Now he doesn't wear anything underneath it in order for it to still fit. I use the term fit loosely...really it is bordering on inappropriate. So when my mom came to visit, she brought another Spider-Man costume. Yeah! So Lucas was a comfortable Spidey for Halloween.
This opened the door for Aidan, who was never allowed to wear the Spider-Man costume. He has a Batman costume, but really, is it as exciting as the Spider-Man costume his brother has been saving the world with for the last two years? Luckily, it fit Aidan and he decided to dress as Spider-Bat. He wore the Spider-Man costume, the Batman cape, and one Spider-Man sock and one Batman sock. The best part about it was his level of pride and confidence as people tried to guess what he was!

Very imaginative and inventive. The boys are so intelligent, but I sort of expect that as their PaPa. Also, they really get into the part of their character.
