oh yeah... the kids

Sometimes I get a little wrapped up in all our festivities to remember that Halloween is still about the kids. Oops. So here are the kids!




Lacie - Princess, of sorts...



...who almost missed the whole party when she fell asleep on the way to the Trunk-or-Treat!



Andrea - the butterfly garden fairy with a random bunny. She wanted to wear bunny ears as well, but I insisted that was just too strange.



And of course, our little monkey! (Literally! Mark & I were the Baron & Baroness and made Hyrum our exotic pet monkey.)



SO CUTE!!


Rewind a day...
The schools here aren't allowed to celebrate Halloween. Lame. However, to appease outraged parents like me, the Elementary school has cleverly inserts their annual "Storybook Parade" at the end of each October. Only the Kindergartners dress up, and they must actually bring the book with the character they are representing. Ya know, making it legitimately non-Halloween and all. Oh, except all the other teachers dress up, too. How that is fair I do not know.
Anyway, Andrea wanted to go as a genie. We decided to call her "Princess Jasmine" soas to be inline with the rules since we didn't have a girl-genie book.


Awwwww!


Lining up. (notice the books)
