The Barone Blog: Halloween

Oh Halloween, it's such a crazy day. At least it is when you work at a Daycare. I can't tell you how many times I thought to myself "Thank you JESUS, Halloween is on a Friday!". Kids are just insane and then they are just grumpy and tired the next day. But with all the insaneness, I was pretty excited to celebrate Halloween this year with the Boys. Last year they were too tiny to do anything for Halloween and I didn't really want to spend money on a costume that they would just wear so that I could get a picture, so instead I just bought them Halloween shirts and they still looked adorable. But this year was a different story. This year the Boys dressed up as Minions from the movie Despicable Me. They LOOOOVE that movie and any time the Minions come on they just smile and laugh at them, so I figured that would be the best twin costume for them - I've got to take advantage of the "twin Halloween costumes" while I can, because sooner or later I won't be able to. My Mom also made them the cutest hats to go along with their costumes and I think the hats are what make the costume perfect! And to my surprise, the Boys love to wear them!

We didn't really do much though. We took them to a friend's house so that they could see the Boys' and they got some applesauce instead of candy, which is awesome! And then we stopped by to visit Aunt Patti and Uncle Shawn. It was just the low key kind of Halloween night I was happy with, after the insane day we had at work. And I think it was just enough for the Boys as well, because by the end of it they were so exhausted from the day too. However, I know my busy Halloween nights are coming.
