Halloween


Well, we had a busy weekend starting with Halloween. I'll see if I can't dig up a picture for this. May and Ruth were dressed as the co-stars of the newest Barbie movie, The Diamond Castle. They were in fancy dresses, tiaras, and heart necklaces; Princess Liana and Princess Alexa deserved no less. Oh, and Spitz was dressed as one of the male counterparts from the movie, Jeremy. (He looked like he was wearing a pirate costume less all the pirate-y parts like the weapons and eye-patch -- which he was.)
Rose 0.10 was a cute little pink bunny rabbit; the costume was worn by May 7.2 back when she was just 1.2. I decided to match her by finding an adult bunny costume. Fortunately, I was just looking for ears, not a full costume, because the adult bunny costumes (and they are plentiful) are not PG. In fact, there are very few female adult costumes that aren't a bit scandalous, not to mention sized for skinny women. Anyway, I did find a set of ears, tail and gloves. When the gloves turned out to have about 2-inch fingers, I pitched them, but the ears and the little pin-on puff-ball tail were just perfect.
The night was beautiful, near 70 degrees, perfect for lots of neighbors to be out and sociable. Ruth didn't make it too far before the bag was too heavy for her and she wanted to come home, so Rose and I walked back with her while Spitz and May continued on. Grandma and Grandpa were holding down the fort at home, handing out the candy.
May and Ruth were allowed to eat to their hearts' content until bedtime. Spitz and I topped off the night with the Heroes season 3 opener which we had DVR'd and just gotten up to (finally finished season 2). [Total side note: O.O what were they thinking with this season? Ack! ]

Edit: Added the photo - It's Ruth, May, Rose & I and also Spitz' sister (the gypsy).

Can't wait to see pictures!!:D

This season of Heroes gets better as it goes. Up to like, episode 6 now? And it's feeling more like the first season... which is good, I almost didn't want to watch it anymore. It also seems to be less gross lately, and that's a relief for me!
