For the third year in a row Spencer asked to be Super Why. Every other year I have been able to talk him into what idea I had for him but this year I decided to try to make the costume he wanted. I don't sew. It wasn't easy and the first time I tried to sew his cape it took me a half an hour to thread the machine and everything I sewed the fabric frayed right through. Luckily I had a friends who came over and helped make up for my lack of sewing skills. I think it turned out pretty great if I do say so myself.
Luckily I can still talk Owen into wearing the costume we already have in his size. 
We carved our pumpkins in the day just before heading to the ward trunk or treat. When we finished carving them we lit the candles inside and went into the laundry room where there are no windows and turned off the lights to admire our work. When we tuned the lights back on Owen has hiding in the laundry basket. Apparently he was uncomfortable with Scott and Spencer's "meam punkin." He did, however, love his "happy" pumpkin.
This year was so warm for trick or treating it was weird, poor Owen was sweating in his puffy warm costume. Look how our pumpkins shrivled up in the heat. This was one of the best Halloweens I can ever remember. The boys loved trick or treating and ran around with a family from our ward while I hung out with the other parents (minus Scott who chose to attend the Chiefs/Chargers game...50 yard line 17th row. Punk)
