Halloween

Why the tears little Bumblebee?
This is why.  Trey's Grandpa Ulibarri loves to dress up on Halloween, but it always seems to be something a little unsettling.  Last year he had a big bloody rat on top of his head that was "eating his head", it was gross.  Clara wouldn't have anything to do with him last year and this year it was Nora's turn to be terrified.  Poor little Bumblebee.
The family.  Jonas was a pirate, Clara a princess and Nora a bumblebee.  Grandma Cindy and Grandpa Dewey bought all of their costumes at Cracker Barrel.  They're the best, they always hook us up. 
I was a big ol' round basketball for Halloween and Trey was the referee.  We won the "cutest couple costume" award!  The prize was candy.  Mmmm...more candy, exactly what this rotund basketball needs!
The cousins .  I love Riley, the mummy in a coffin.  Lindsay picked up that steal for I think 3 bucks at Goodwill.  I LOVE thrift stores.  I think I'm addicted.  About half of my kids wardrobes are thrift store bargains.  Is that weird?  People will ask where I got such and such adorable clothes but t when I say the thrift store they aren't sure what to say next.   Hey, I'm just a savvy shopper, right?

  4. Great costumes! A basketball? That's original. Usually pregnant women are pumpkins for Halloween. So you win not only the cutest couple, but the most creative! :) Maybe we'll actually dress up next year.

    Thrift stores rock! I think that is where Dewey got all his clothes during high school, so why not keep the tradition! :) If people don't say "That's awesome!" when you tell them where you got it, then they aren't very cool people.

  6. I love your basketball, and the picture of Trey with the whistle in his mouth is hilarious. He is making such a nerdy face!

    Grandpa kills me! Isn't he great? Even though he delights in scaring your children.
