Happy Halloween-Wild Things!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN from Max and the Wild Thing! We decided that Where the Wild Things are would be a fun and adorable theme for Halloween this year. Rowan was really excited about it and wanted Boden to be Max and he wanted to be a wild thing. I looked at a few tutorials on making costumes but in the end I found these adorable costumes online and then added some finishing touches to them instead. 

We did a morning little trick or treat at Stroller Strides which was fun (the kids wore old costumes-a fireman and dinosaur so they didn't get these dirty). 

And then after naps, we got dressed in their costumes, went to Chipotle for Booritos ($3) and then trick or treated our neighborhood with the Finlaysons!  

Picture overload because I couldn't pick just a few, they are so cute!

I made t-shirts with quotes from the book for Grant and I to wear. It was a perfect easy way to fit into the theme.

We weren't sure if trick or treating in our neighborhood would be good but the neighbors said that the street down the hill from us was usually pretty good, and there were lots of people with decorations so we decided to check it out! We loved having the Finlaysons join us too!

Rowan was hesitant at first (maybe because we started at the scariest house on the street (he sat down and would not go to the door he was so scared, wouldn't even let me carry him). After that he warmed up a little and by the end he was running door to door and loved it!

It was so fun to see the little guys out trick or treating on this perfect fall night! Boden was hilarious and would grab candy out of people's bowls while they were putting candy in his bucket :) Everyone thought he was too cute so just let him have whatever he grabbed though! Happy Halloween!
