October - time to start celebrating halloween

we started celebrating halloween early this year
the first week of october we got dressed up in our homemade costumes

Sadie "Strawberry ShortCake Princess" - not to be mistaken as strawberry shortcake because there is a princess involved in this
Silas "Superhero Shark Knight" i have no idea where this one came from but this was a challenging costume to try and figure out - once created though it became a fun master piece!
this year i have learned about the glue gun which is important because i fear i will be making halloween costumes for years to come :)

our first adventure was going on a trick or treat hike at the holden arboretum!
it was cold and rainy but we still did it the leaves had just started turning brilliant colors - sugar maples bright red!!pictures always say more than words - so here is the start of our halloween fun!!!
