This year, Halloween is going mellow at our home.
Our costumes this year were easy, peasy. A hat (each one cost anywhere from FREE to $3, templates found here), foam (already had), a beak or pig nose (PartyCo for $1.99), coordinating shirt (had on hand or less then $5). Done.
This may sadly be our last year doing the whole family themed costume :(. The pre-teen is losing interest. We'll see what next year will hold...

Dinosaur Evan is the cutest thing I have ever seen!
Maybe you could pick themes that require and uninterested pre-teen.
You know we have never matched as a family, ever, not even when they were little and even if we did I do not remember it at all... Sad it goes so quickly. When I told Adam Anna was the pig, he wondered if some day she will be mad that she was the pig :) I said I did not think so because she was a princess pig.
SOOO Awesome!! You're family is amazing. I totally want to do themes with my future family (fingers crossed).
Sorry I've been totally lame about commenting on your blog. But you should know that any time I have a conversation about Halloween costumes (or about Angry Birds), I have to tell whoever I'm talking with about this awesome family in my ward and their awesome costumes. Just sayin'...!
You guys are the cutest family ever. I want you to know that I read your latest post. I knnow you are never going to stop worrying-you're a mom, that's what we do, but if Tyler is anything like you, well he'll do just fine in life. You're an amazing person!
Chippers you're hilarious. By the way, I heard your name at Stake Conference on Sunday (I think it was your sis-in-law). It actually woke me up and disoriented me. "Chiapelli?? Where? Huh?"
