Halloween

We had an awesome Halloween.

It was pretty busy but fun fun. We started out bright and early with a garage sale at 6am. Mind you I didn't go to bed until 4:30am because I last minute decided to make Hardy's costume. I'm not sewing savvy so needless to say it took me all night :)

The story behind our little family costume theme started early October.... Pretty much every day I would ask Hardy... so what do you want to be for Halloween? The first time I asked him I had to explain to him that we get to dress up & be whatever we want for Halloween. We were on a little walk together & out of nowhere he said... "I want to be a cow"

. It was really funny. Anyways, I kept asking him because I wanted him to be something he'd really love. The next thing he came up with was a hippopotamus. Random! The hippo stuck for several weeks & I have to be honest I was getting a little nervous. How in the heck was I gonna pull off a hippo costume! Lets face it, I'm a beginner & not a very creative one at that! So about 3 days before Halloween I asked Hardy what he wanted to be for Halloween, dreading the "hippo" reply & he said a ROCKET! He LOVES rockets. He builds them all the time at our house with pillows, blankets & anything else he can pile on top of each other. He gets so animated & excited talking about them "going way up high". It is too cute. So I was excited. A rocket I could figure out and of course I wanted us to all match & so that is where the idea began... :)

The cutest little ROCKET & CLOUD you've ever seen.....

For Halloween evening we went over to Hyrum's parents house. We had yummy soup in breadbowls & then headed out to the neighborhood Halloween Carnival which by the way was AMAzing. I totally wish I would have taken a million pictures because it was seriously my ADORABLE.
