Halloween 2012

This was the best year yet for Ashton and Halloween. It's so great that he knows what's coming this year since he remembers last year! At school the kids all dressed as farmers and they had a pumpkin patch and hayride so he was so excited. His awesome teachers are great about telling me what the snacks will be so I packed him up some Halloween cookies we made last weekend and he was set! Here we are at 6:30 before we all left for work and school. C and E were wearing their orange for their Halloween party too. I was dressed as Snow White for work (more later)

Ready to go trick or treating! Ashton had told Collin yesterday, "Tomorrow is Halloween and you get to eat candy ALL day!"

The firemen and their fire dog "Embers" which is really his nickname!

This idea came months ago when Ashton said when he grew up he wanted to be a fireman with Collin and I think Wes or maybe it was AShton who said  Embry can be your firedog!

Looking at their pumpkin daddy carved

The crew in their fire engine! I had wanted to make a firetruck with the wagon for a long time but decided it was too hard so Wes came up with this last minute which was perfect. He drew a ladder on the other side!

they looked too cute waiting on the people at the doors


Embers stuck it out even though he was tired and doing his "tired song" by the end

The hats were a little sideways by the end of the night and they couldn't wait to eat all the candy. Of course Ashton would say, "I'm allergic to this" which is awesome that he knows now. I bought lots of safe candy that we traded in for his unsafe and made him quite happy and now daddy and I have a lot of chocolate! 
This is me at work dressed as Snow White with one of my doctors as the huntsman. My mom made my skirt! I bought the cape on Etsy.

Another doctor was the wicked witch

OUr nurses were going to dress as dwarfs but decided that was too hard so we had a hillbilly, jester, and lots of jailbirds. They decorated the front windows with bars too. I work with such a great group! Our patients loved it.
