We had such a great weekend. For the first time in at least 5 months Abe hasn't had to study over the weekend so we got to spend a half day on Friday and all day Saturday together. We have some WONDERFUL friends that volunteered to watch Ethan and Taylor on Friday night so Abe and I could go out and celebrate. Saturday we had fun getting ready for Halloween. We decided to go with a Peter Pan theme for our Halloween costumes. Ethan has wanted to be a pirate for months and Ethan refers to Taylor as Tinkerbell so that was settled. Thanks to a costume from high school I was Princess Tiger Lily. Ethan had the most fun. He was told he could only swordfight with people at the ward party that also had a sword so he spent most of the time just wandering around looking for people with swords. He hardly got any candy, which only makes Abe and I sad since he can't eat it and we were hoping for more, because he spent the whole time provoking people so they would fight with him.
Abe doing his best "angry pirate" face.
Taylor was a trooper about her tu-tu. Friday night I decided I didn't like the onsie that I was going to put under her tu-tu so we whipped out a green dress in a couple of hours and I think it turned out so cute, well as long as no one looks too closely.
I put some gel in her hair to give her some little curls and she worked on ruining her hair do from the minute I put it in.
She loved to eat her wings all night long.

I'm impressed with several things...first, that you made her dress. She looks so sweet! Second - that you and Chey got dressed up. Third - that you can fit into a costume from high school...after having two kids!
very cute! it turned out very nicely, and yuor whole family looks awesome!
Very nice, I just wish Abe would have worn a Peter Pan outfit with skimpy green shorts. But it's probably better that you didn't; Princess Tiger Lilly wouldn't have been able to resist his... charm.
LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!!!! What a great picture. Such cute kids. Miss you....
