The plan was for Caleb to be Buzz Lightyear and Luke to be Woody. They wore their costumes to a party with Uncle Peter & Aunt Terri the weekend before Halloween and Caleb managed to destroy his costume (it was used and old and really not his fault - it fell apart). At least we got one picture! That same night we held an adults-only party in our house, so of course we had to dress up!
So for Halloween night Caleb got to be Bullseye, Woody's horse. :) We had an unused horse costume that I got stuck with thanks to lame Halloween return policies. So it worked out. He ran around the neighborhood yelling, "Ride like the wind, Bullseye!" I didn't have the heart to tell him that Woody says that line and the horse doesn't talk. :) He was such a good sport about being a horse.
Goey came for the weekend and we made Jack-o-Lantern pizzas like last year. We walked the neighborhood with 3 wonderful families who live on our street. We are so blessed to have such great neighbors!! (I seriously keep getting lucky in this department.) Our 12-year-old cousin Steven, who lives across the street (yes), and whom my boys adore came with us as well. Luke held his hand the entire time (no one else would do) and they walked so slow. It's hard to keep a hat on a cowboy! Luke understood trick or treating way better than Caleb at his age (… probably because we didn't even take Caleb out that year! Haha. There are plenty of advantages to be the first child - there's got to be a disadvantage or two too, right?) Caleb was more excited about the candy than last year, but he was mostly pumped to run around with his friends, particularly Aria, whose hand he held at least half of the time. It was a great Halloween!
