Halloween (plus a little bit of Legoland)

Dan and Ben are very into Star Wars, so this year we had a Darth Vader (Ben) and a Shock Trooper (Dan).  Hannah was a sassy witch, but she didn't like wearing her pointy hat, so she mostly just looked like a saloon girl.  Adorable either way!

The boys wore their costumes to school last Thursday for the costume parade.  The whole school sits in the courtyard and each class parades by and everyone cheers.  There were lots of princesses and superheroes, as expected.  They had parties in school and then had the day off on Friday for teacher inservice.

Since every other school district had school, I knew that Legoland would be fairly empty.  Zach took the day off work and we had a great day there.  It was really awesome--no lines, slightly overcast, empty restaurants and shops.  We rode everything we wanted and just had a really good time.

The fun was not over yet because then we went trick-or-treating after supper.  Zach and Hannah joined us for the first part and then they went home to hand out candy.  Dan and Ben and I stayed out a little longer because the weather was great and we ran into some of their school friends to walk with.  Another successful Halloween!
