Monsters and Strawberries and Penguins, Oh My!

Halloween was a big hit this year. Avery is well aware of the trick-or-treating racket now and was very excited for that. Mason didn't understand the whole candy thing, but he actually loved his costume, and had a blast running around growling at everybody. I think he knew just exactly how cute he was. And boy was he angry when it was time to take off the costume and go to bed. With all the excitement, nobody was much in the mood to hold still for pictures, but I did manage to get a few...

"Grrrrrrowl!"

Just for the record, Chris bought the penguin suit all on his own.

Headed out to trick-or-treat!
