The Ramos Family: Halloween Weekend

So, we started the weekend with Career Day at school on Friday. I didn't want to send them in their costumes, so I came up with them being farmers...they were too cute.

Mornings are tough for Lilly!! Especially when you have to put make up on!

Reed was excited to bring his horse to school.

They had parties at school. This is Reed with his class.

Lilly with her class...well, who was left that day!

Then on Saturday morning we had Reed's last soccer game. He played well and Ethan came to hang out too.

At the end, all the kids got medals...Can you tell he was excited??

The rest of the weekend was prepping for Halloween festivities at the house...finishing Lilly's costume, cleaning, cooking, etc.

The start of Halloween...Lilly is already going for the goodies!

So, last minute kinda, we threw together a little get together at my house. My Army friends came with their kids. We ate, trick or treated and watched some of the game. We all had a great time too!

And here they are!! Renee and I custom made the girls outfits...she sewed the skirts, I created the poodles, we both did the sequin leashes, made the bows to match the poodle's bow, ironed on their initials on their shirts. I have to say, they came out precious. Reed was a greaser guy and loved having his hair spiked up. He had a leather jacket, tattoos, candy cigarettes, and a black comb for his back pocket!!

The kids playing outside before Trick or Treating.

TJ and Erin (cousin and girlfriend) came in too! Reed loves to play with TJ!

Mom was there too...she cooked a wonderful gumbo for everyone and gave out all the candy (and then raided my pantry when she ran out and gave away fruit snacks...I told her to go easy on the handing out but she didn't listen and ran through 4 bags of candy in less than an hour!)
