Snapshots of Halloween // 2014

How's November treating you? I hope everyone goes out to vote today!!

I finally managed to get my Halloween pictures finished up, so here you have it. It was a pretty laid back event this year. It seems the older we get the harder it is to overlap our schedules. My dad was working until 11pm, my sister and her husband came after he got off work, none of our usual family or friends stopped in... but that's just how it goes sometimes. We didn't carve pumpkins, make a haunted cookie house or caramel apples. We just turned on festive music, dressed up and hung out... which ended up being just right. :)

It was a nice night, the main event being my mom's DIY Merida (from Brave) costume of my sister Olivia. Seriously impressive stuff! Here is a little collage to show you how much of a straight-haired blondie she is. And the middle is her REAL hair, curled and colored by my momma to make her look just like Merida. Crazy right??

Here is what it looked like with her whole costume on! -Which my mom also DIYed! She had a blast and it was good that she got to wear a (fake!) furry cloak, it was a cold night!!

I also got a few pictures of the pets.. as usual. Chili and Griz both enjoyed attention from everyone being home.

KC and I dressed up like Boris and Natasha for our Black  & White Halloween party a few weeks before, so we decided to dress up again for Halloween. :)

The costumes were really easy, but fun! KC is such a blast! He was really enjoying that hat.... :) -As usual everyone had fun trying on my wig. Including the cat and my father.... haha.

We all chatted and watched Stardust. Then Olivia and mom fell asleep and we all headed home. :) Next year we'll have to try to take more pictures. :)

Later that weekend my mom got Olivia dressed as a princess again for The Frozen Coronation Ball, and she got dressed up too. :) Such a fun mom we have, so lucky!

How was your Halloween??

All for now,
