Kids' Halloween Parties

Man, we have not been slacking around here!  Since they don't have halloween parties in Kindergarten, Jackson got invited to a party after school on Monday.

Caleb's mom threw such a cool halloween party for the kids!

There was pizza, cupcake decorating, crafts, indoor basketball (J's fave)...

pumpkin decorating...

and then real basketball, too!  The kid was in hog heaven.

Little sister was quite happy to help him finish decorating the pumpkin.

Then before we left, the kids got to go on a candy scavenger hunt in Caleb's front yard.  So cool!

They all got a ton of candy...just the beginning of a very sugary week!

The next morning, Lila got to put on her costume and we went to her school for a morning party.

Her class was too cute all dressed up.  The kid wearing the Merida costume from Brave cracked me up with that HUGE red wig!  I couldn't believe that she kept it on.

The kids got to trick-or-treat at a few different places...

and they even got to go to Cinderella's office, too!  How fun! 
Can you tell that Minnie Mouse was not feeling it, though?

She was so concerned about me leaving that her sweet smile was nowhere in sight. 

She did enjoy a muffin with her class...

and was all smiles when I told her that she could just come home with me!  I just couldn't bare to leave her there sobbing.  It's just too sad! 

The next morning, it was finally Madison's turn to dress up for school.  She chose her Spidergirl costume and was so excited to head out the door.

No worries about this little girl going to school.  She was ready!

I heard that her class trick-or-treated all over the school--they even went upstairs!  For her party, she made this little craft, played some games...

took a picture with her class...

and then got to enjoy this yummy brownie.

On our way out the door, we ran into Minnie Mouse! 
Spidergirl stopped to wish her a happy halloween. 

Stay tuned for the halloween night recap.
