Halloween 2013

We're 2 for 2 on bad weather for Halloween.  Last year it was Superstorm Sandy causing cold, rainy conditions and this year it was a freak low pressure system causing high winds, heavy rain, and thunderstorms.  I usually try to find the positive in every situation so here it is: it was warmer than last year.  And, to be honest, it wasn't so bad.  We managed to head out as soon as we saw the rain lighten up a bit, however the only problem was that it was deceiving.  Because the wind died down, it only looked like it was raining less! But the boys and I wore our rain boots and Peter carried our umbrella.  The boys also had it pretty good in their wagon, which was covered by a sun shade. Eventually, the boys hopped out and into the puddles, which made for some pretty cute pictures.  After going down Camelia Court and to our new neighbors next door and across the street, the boys were water logged and ready to go inside, which was fine by us.  And, they made out like bandits because everyone gave away handfuls of candy.  All in all, it was definitely better than last year!  Check out the boys below, dressed as Lucky the Dalmatian and Kwazii the Cat from Octonauts on Disney Junior.  It's the first year where they've told me what they wanted to dress up as for Halloween!
