There's nothing like a major holiday to make you realize just how much time has passed and how much your kids have grown in the last year. Halloween is one of my favorite holidays, so I love looking back at the photos I've taken of the kids on Halloween these last three years. I can't believe this is Mac's fourth Halloween and Mim's second. Mac is so incredibly excited about Halloween this year and he got to pick out his own costume for the first time (I'm still working on it). In St. Louis, all the kids tell jokes to get treats, so we've been working on his joke, which I'm still not sure he understands. I didn't realize how hard jokes are for little kids because of all the double meaning and references to things he doesn't understand (vampires, ghosts, Frankenstein, witches, etc.). Does anyone else tell jokes where you live? Anyway, these photos are just killing me with how little they both were. I'm already thinking about how much bigger and more opinionated they'll be next year! I need another baby. I'll be sure to take a million photos of the kids tomorrow and give you a full recap of their adventures next week. Fingers crossed the cold rainy forecast is wrong.

ReplyDeleteOh my goodness!!! These photos are amazing, it's so fun to look back on all of the costumes. Although Halloween isn't really my favourite holiday I do love seeing all of the kids dress up... I love that you tell jokes for treats where you are! SO fun!
ReplyDeleteAlso... Mac's costumes are pretty awesome, the Mac n' Cheese is the best!

ReplyDeleteliz @ sundays with sophie
The Mac truck is the bomb!!!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh was he mac and cheese and then a mac truck?? I'm DYING. That's awesome!!!
ReplyDeleteSo darling!!! Hands down the greatest costumes award goes to Mac!
ReplyDeleteYou have the best costumes!! I can't wait to see Mac and Mim's Halloween pictures for this year! We don't do jokes here, but I think it's an awesome idea.
ReplyDeleteI love all of your costume ideas and how you incorporate Mac's name into the theme. Genius! Here's hoping this halloween is dry and warm for you :)
ReplyDeleteI loved all of these and you captured the moments so beautifully. I loved the Mac Truck as well as the angel and devil costumes. Oh hell, I loved them all.
ReplyDeleteOh man it's crazy to see Mac as a baby! Time flies! And no I've never heard of telling a joke to get candy... Interesting!!
ReplyDeleteOmg! You are so freaking clever! I love the reference to his name in his costumes!! Cracks me up! They have grown so much! Can't wait to see their costumes this year.
ReplyDeleteOh look at those babes..!! Even just last year. Lovin' the 'Mac' theme costumes. :)
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh I LOVE all of these!! So fun & Cute!! I cracked up at the Mac & Cheese!!! Greatness!!
ReplyDeleteThis joke business sounds stressful! Everywhere I have lived (5 different places) it's just a standard "trick or treat!" How does the joke thing even work with a big group of kids?! Anyway, baby Mac is so so adorable! Where has the time gone?!
ReplyDeleteI love, love, LOVE the Mac & Cheese costume! That is awesome!
ReplyDeleteThey sure have grown though & I'm happy to see that Mac liked his devil costume more than the Mac truck one...which was also adorable. Tee hee!
Baby Mac and Baby Mim! It's crazy to think they were so little!! Loved the costumes from years past, and this year's family theme was AH-MAY-ZING!!!
ReplyDeleteThese pictures range from amazing to adorable to hilarious! And right? Holidays bring out those comparisons like none other. How did it all go so quickly?
