Happy Halloween!

I have a real love/hate relationship with Halloween. I enjoy the candy for awhile (it always lasts us until at least Christmas). I don't totally hate taking the girls trick or treating....I enjoy the walk.  I do not like coming up with costumes, which is why I have always appreciated my girls' creativity - which usually kicks in the week of Halloween which leads me to the hate part of Halloween: the panic of putting the costume together which usually means a last minute shopping trip to somewhere and a 'mad mom craft' to throw the costume together. 
 
Well, this year Mom and Dad were invited to a party: "costumes mandatory; swimsuits optional."  I am not creative, but I have to say, I was pleased with what we I came up with. Scooter vetoed more than one idea I found on Pinterest (boobs) and I vetoed one of his only idea (sperm and egg). I think we found a nice friendly costume:

Elyse went trick or treating as a 'flower child' with her friend.  Carolyn was a ghost and refused to be photographed.
