Trick or Treat

I don't like to spend money on Halloween costumes.

Every costume Jackson (and Oliver) has had has either been off a *super clearance* rack or purchased at a yard sale.  However, this year ... I had a breakdown and let Jax get an "angry bird" costume FULL PRICE!  Shocker, I know!  

Therefore, we went trick-or-treating three different times to get our money's worth out of that baby!  Here are a few pictures from our 2012 Halloween adventures at The Alamo, Sherando High School, and the Apple Blossom Mall!

Happy Halloween!

Oliver went as a lobster ($2.99 at Gymboree, thank you).  However, the poor thing is so long that I had to cut the feet out of his lobster tail and turn it into knickers!

There's my expensive little Angry Bird (aka waste of money ... haha) ... but he enjoyed it!  I suppose it was worth it just this once!

The closest I ever got to a picture of the boys together on Halloween ... note: Jackson still isn't a big fan of "brother."

Jackson's first face painting at Sherando High School.  What a GREAT Halloween festival they put on for the kiddos.

Ready to trick-or-treat at the mall!

Nomnomnomnomnom!

Did someone say candy?!?

Looks like trouble to this mama!
