I really love haloween. candy and playing dress up - who doesn't right? (besides kyle- who wanted to dress up like a "dad". hazel didn't let him get away with it. he ended up being a "soccer player", he has a jersey on under his hoodie. what a party pooper eh?)
this year hazel was sooo excited about it and then got the flu the day before. but "magically" she was cured for halloween and had lot of energy to yell "trick or treat" and her tummy felt good enough to eat her treats! she was sick again 2 days later when her candy ran out. of course.
all of sept and most of oct hazel was a puppy - she wouln't answer to her own name - only to "bolt" or "puppy". of course i bought her a puppy costume and then she wanted to be a balarina. which would have been exciting if she wasn't in the throes of wearing this specific purple balerina dress every day!
dekker was the cutest little puppy. his costume had a little sound maker in the paw "woof-woof" that was pretty amazing to him. is it bad to include the crying pic? hazel really likes to hug her brother and a lot of the time it ends with an unhappy brother.
of course we did the pumpkin carving thing and hazel wanted to do a skull and crossbones one (i let her choose from a bunch of pics). i was quite proud of myself cuz it looked awesome and then i didn't take any pictures for proof. sad.
