Halloween Superheroes

Princess Batgirl and Superman-who-couldn't-be-bothered-to-get-in-full-costume

Here's what makes Halloween great around here. The kids get to go trick-or-treating in the dorms at Baylor a week before halloween and they LOVE it. We stop at their favorite tree and swing on the big tree swings, and then 6 floors of family-deprived college students doting on their slapdash costumes and filling their buckets with candy.

Why? Because we're fun. 

And then ACTUAL halloween gets to be more of an afterthought. We can dress up, go around to the few houses within walking distance that give out candy, and then hang out on our front porch giving out candy. I think Ben likes the giving out candy part just as much as going door-to-door.

We went around our block with our neighbors. These are the girls that
gave Eliza the princess dress she's wearing--they think she's really cute.

One of these things is not like the others.

Eliza loves wearing her costume...

...all the time, in different combinations
