HALLOWEEN PREVIEW

Hello eye lashes! (Those are all Reese's)













Josh & Pam were "gang members;" Preston was the Grim Reaper, Abbie was a Pirate, McKena was a Witch, Ella was a Pea; Gage was Batman, Reese was Hannah Montana, Cy was a Skeleton, Taylor was a Kitty; Kristie & Paul were Hippies, Madison was Cleopatra, Jack was a Ninja, Georgia was Little Red Riding Hood, Tommy was Buzz Lightyear; my cousin, Emily, was a Witch, her husband, Matt, was David Beckham, their son, Kyle, was a Vampire, and their daughters Elle & Mallory were a Cowgirl and a Greek Goddness. Grandma Gourley was festive with a Halloween Hat that played music, and Grandma Rebecca was the Queen Bee; and Rebecca & Mary-Gail were baby bumble bees.










Mary-Gail - so sweet on Daddy's lap - with her legs crossed at her ankles

Sunday my Mom had her annual Halloween Party at her house. It was a BLAST! Last year we were sick with ear infections, so we didn't come until really late and didn't dress up. But THIS year the girls were so excited to get into their bee costumes, and even more excited to see their cousins. Grandma surprised us with her costume - she was the Queen Bee! It was great eventhough Rebecca & Mary-Gail weren't in the mood for posed pictures.
Rebecca & Mary-Gail were SO excited to see Baby Cy Cy. Paul & Kristie dressed up and so did Josh & Pam. Our cousin, Emily, and her husband & kids came to the party too. It was so much fun! Mom made tons of chili, everyone brought a condiment, and we played games: eating the donut from the string; bean bag toss; bobbing for apples; and JoJo did a game called Hullabaloo.
Baby Becca & "Miguel" were the stinging bees on Grandma's tramp - all the cousins loved it! I hope to get more pictures (I didn't get all the cousin's pictures) and if/when I do I'll post them too. Thank you Grandma for being so wonderful! We love coming to your house and WE LOVE YOU!
