We had a fireman and a bumble bee for Halloween this year.  I had found the raincoat at a garage sale and thought Will would love to go as a fireman (plus, it's a rain coat we can use for another year or two! Win-win!)  Then Will wanted to be a lion (what he was last year).  So, for the Preschool Fall Party, he was.  Yesterday morning, he decided he wanted to be a fireman. I just had to shake my head.  

The boys got their costumes on and went to James' office to "surprise" him. (My calling him 5 minutes before we left saying "Don't leave to come home!" sure made that hard though!) They had fun knocking on his office door and yelling "Trick or Treat!"  Good thing Daddy has some candy (left over from the Labor Day parade)!  That was their one chance to knock on doors.

That evening we went to our church's Fall Festival.  There they played games and won candy and other small prizes.  Will's favorite part was the cake walk (where he won a cake) and a game where he got to shoot balls at a target.  Alex's favorite games was the "fishing pool" with magnets on the end of fishing poles and on plastic fish. I think he just liked swinging the pole around and splashing in the water. It was a fun evening and they came home tired.
