cook or treat (as jude would say)


what a perfect halloween it was.

greta cat & her own vampire jude


ready to go trick or treating.... and yes it was the perfect weather and you did not need a jacket for the first hour or so.

jude decided on his own to be a vampire. i was so thankful he didn't want to be bumblebee or some other sort of super hero. its not that i have anything against them i just feel like he has a whole childhood to be those things. its only when they are really young that they can be cute classic things. anyway, he has been waiting and waiting and waiting for the day that he could wear his costume and he was the best "in character" vampire you have ever met (even if he was not with the trend of vampire's these days.).

jude and minie moo the cat. they are BEST friends. if you ever get to see them in action, consider yourself lucky. i love them.

so typical brooke.... we decide to have our girls be cats for halloween, she goes all out and gets amazingly creative and i go 100% classic kitty cat.i think brooke was bored to tears with greta's costume but i liked the simplicity. we are the same in most every way but she is just a little bit more creative and cute and it really bugs.

greta and poppy lou enjoyed the wagon and their treats for their trouble. they are almost as tight as jude and minie.... almost.

our halloween was so perfect even if it did get thrown a little off coarse. nannie's surgery nixed our plans for some serious hidden oaks trick or treating and delicious billie chili. its good thing we are adults and have our own houses these days that we could fall back on. our own house, as it turns out, made a perfect halloween party location. the neighborhood maybe be old and a little bit ghetto but it proved perfect for little legs running from house to house (even if jude wanted to be an invalid the whole time). we were joined by the jackson's and mark and tiffani for a little jack o'lantern pizza, trick or treating, and games. we got all of 4 babies(miracle of miracles) to bed in time for some adult humor and our laughter could be heard for miles. note: play telephone pictionary immediately. it was perfect.

hope your halloween was as perfect as ours.


i cannot wait to take down our halloween decor.... its been a long 2 months.

Could your kids look any cuter. I think Jude was made to be a "classic Vampire" and Greta was a perfect cat! I look at these pictures and have a sad moment of not being able to squish them in their costumes! Miss you guys....Thanks for posting Minie and Poppy, since Brooke hasn't!

Jude is such a stud. and could Greta be any more adorable as a cat? I think not. Adorable
