Arlee's First Halloween

This year was Arlee's first Halloween. She was dressed up as a Lady Bug. She looked so cute. To tie in with Arlee's outfit Hans and I were SWAT. We wore all black and had SWAT on our shirts. Then we carried around fly swatters and that was out outfits. Of course we don't "swat" Arlee, but I thought it was a really cute idea for us this year.

This is my pumpkin that I carved this year. It is a witch.

This is Hans' pumpkin and it is a tomb raider. There is a diamond on the bottom of the picture that he is after.

Arlee's cousin Brock was spiderman. They really like each other as you can tell. (I didn't have Arlee's hat on.... It just kept falling off.)

Here we have some of Hans' family: (Left to right) Amy-dressed up as the one Spiderman saves. (she is pregnant), Brock- spiderman, Jens (Hans' brother)- a bad guy that Spiderman catches, Me- SWAT, Arlee- Lady Bug, Hans- SWAT, Ulla (Hans' mom)- the clown

Amy, Brock and Jens

Arlee with my sunglasses on... Makes really cute "bug eyes" :)

This is a picture that we took right before we left for our adventures.

Arlee is all ready to go!

This was on Friday night at my friends' house. Gage and Arlee playing with their party cups. They loved them.

Arlee and Gage dressed up for the party.... they are holding hands- how cute! Gage is a lion.

This weekend was a lot of fun. Halloween used to be one of my least favorite holidays, but this year was great to take Arlee around and see everyone. We are looking forward to next year when she will really enjoy the trick or treating.
