Halloween pics....finally!

I am finally adding my pics from Halloween. We got to dress up twice, once for school on Thursday, then again on Friday. As teachers, we have to dress up too. Fun! I wanted to have some sort of a theme, so, Maddie was a pink poodle, Isaac was a dalmation, and I was a veterinarian. Mine was easy, as I already had the scrubs, so I just added Maddie's play stethoscope around my neck, and off we went. I found the idea for Maddie's costume out of one of my fabulous parenting magazines. It looked really cute, and we're decorating her room, one step at a time, in the "Gigi" theme from Bombay Kids, so she's into the little french poodles. Her costume consisted of bath poufs, rubber bands, a shirt, pants, 2 pairs of socks, a hanger, and some tape. Sounded easy enough to me! No sew is always my preferred method! :) Here's the results:




Below is the picture from Maddie's class party that I got to run up and take a pic of her and her oh so beautiful pumpkin she decorated:


Then, on Friday, we went to old downtown McKinney square where the shop vendors sit outside their shops and we go walking around from store to store and trick-or-treat. This is something we've done every year since Madeline was 4 months old. (She actually fell asleep in her stroller then and they took a picture of her sleeping and put it on the front page of their paper, of course that's in her scrapbook and not saved in my computer). But last year and this year, we've gone with our best friends, Jessica and Alan and their children, Kayla and Brayden:
