This year I avoided the Halloween isles at the stores the best that I could. I was trying to avoid the kids seeing all the new costumes and asking for one. It's just that we have a bin FULL of costumes and dress-up stuff and I was bound and determined to not spend $60 (or more) on costumes this year. And it worked!!! Halloween got nearer and nearer and the kids ran to the bin to rustle up a costume no questions, and best of all no complaints! Though I had bought Lily's costume last year for $5, the boys found something that they hadn't been before and all were happy! Whew!
Here we are at our wards Trunk-or-Treat. I dusted off my old kung-fu gi and we were ready to go!

And here are the kids on Halloween night trick-or-treating. (Notice that Matthew has switched to Harry Potter.)
This is right before I let them dump out their bags and go to town!
