Halloween

Our Halloween started out with a workout! Diego asked if he could rake the leaves. He actually wanted to. I thought I couldn't let this opportunity pass so I said "Yes!" It's not often he asks to actually do a chore!
He did such a good job. He even did our neighbors yard who then paid him a dollar. Diego was really excited that he got paid for his efforts. (Thank goodness though we live in a townhouse where the yards aren't huge!)
Diego did have to compete with these two monkeys! Never mind that the wind was blowing the leaves, Christian and Anthony thought it would be fun to throw them at each other and mess up Diego's pile.
Never wear white while raking leaves or jumping in them! This is what happens:
The marks of a good time!
After all that hard work, it was time to get ready to go trick-or-treating in the neighborhood. Thankfully the rain held off for a bit so the kids could get their pumpkins full. They had a good and successful time!
Here is Christian as Indiana Jones. Funny how he is always at least two characters for Halloween!
Here is the crew:

After reading the other post about Christian's outfit, I think it's funny to see him dressed as Indiana Jones - as if he picked that character solely based on the snappy outfit. =) He looks great in that jacket and hat!

I wish we all lived closer. Wouldn't it be fun if all of the cousins could trick-or-treat together?

I can just see the faces of the home owner when 15 kids come ringing the doorbell at once. :)

His outfit came out so great! Nice job on the bag too Jodi!
