{ halloween roundup }

Although O & S have no idea what the concept of Halloween is, we still had a lot of fun dressing them up in ridiculous costumes for the holiday. I figured this is probably my last year that they won't have an opinion as to what they dress up as.

I debated doing the standard super cute, plushy costumes that toddlers their age normally wear. But then saw the superhero idea and couldn't get that out of my head. And the bonus is that they can wear the capes for dress up for years to come.

They got plenty of wear out of them Halloween weekend, starting with a party with their toddler friends. This was the group last year.

And this year.

Is there anything cuter than a corral full of one year olds dressed on costumes? Well, maybe if they were all looking and smiling. But we all know that is nearly impossible. It was all downhill after the first shot.

Stella took awhile to warm up to the idea of having fun at the party but that gave me the opportunity to sneak the mask onto her. Probably the best part of the costume but this was the only 5 minutes that either of them wore them.

Other cuteness at the party included bears....

Pumpkins

Ducks

Dinosaurs

And bumblebees, which even this superhero couldn't fight off.

That afternoon we had to be out of the house for a showing so we headed to a free event in Eagan for more wear out of the costumes.

We mostly spent the time chasing O & S around the large gym. Now I get the kids on a leash thing.

Stella also took the opportunity to bust a few moves on the gym floor.

But the most exciting thing by far was the giant Panda.

We also saw twin friends Lily and Lucy at the event. Have you ever seen cuter ladybugs?!?

Halloween eve we headed over to the Christensen's for some pizza and play time with the cousins. Major fail that I walked away with zero pictures of anyone else at the party!

We let O & S do some cruising down the streets practicing their superhero speed.

No "true" trick or treating for these two as they were in bed by 7:00. I know, lame parents - next year!
