We definitely got our moneys worth out of these tiger costumes! With the exception of the Ashton Doggy year in 2013 we have always been Halloween Tigers. Over a month before Halloween Ashton got out his white tiger costume from last year and tried it on and guess what... it still fit! So we got out the orange tiger costume for Julian and... it still fit!
After an afternoon of playing tigers Ash decided he wanted everyone to be tigers again this year. At first I was kinda bummed because I was looking forward to picking out new costumes this year but if the costume fits...
It did make me happy to know that Ashton still had a love for white tigers.
We got to wear our costumes quite a bit this year. I love all the Halloween activites that go on around Fort Worth. We couldn't have attended all of them if we had wanted to! We had fun decorating pumpkins and checking out all the other fun kids in costumes at the Ridgmar Mall Kids Club early in the month. Next was Boo at the Zoo. Trick or treating around the zoo is always fun.
Ashton was extremely excited to see the white tiger again, and lets be honest so was I. Last year was still one of the coolest experiences and we definitely love that white mama tiger. It was a rainy day so our friend was hiding, but the orange tiger did make an appearance long enough for us to get a family tiger picture.
Julian saying "trick or treat" is the cutest thing. He is a huge fan of the suckers for sure.
We did Reverse Trick or Treating again at Dad's school with SAA. It's always fun to get to visit Daddy on campus, especially when candy is involved.
The school threw a fun Halloween Party a few nights later full of fun games and you guessed it more candy. Dad even took a break from studying the night before his test to come play with us.
The morning before Halloween we went with friends to a fun Toddler Jump party at Flight Deck. This was my favorite party of the season. It was so fun to jump and play with the boys. Ashton even won a prize in the costume contest! That night we had our ward Halloween party at the church.
We trick or treated around to different classrooms and Ash and Dad even went through the haunted house!
Ashton has been super into Halloween this year. I can't even count how many times we have watched Curious George's Halloween. We've made so many "spooky" Halloween crafts and he loves talking about the different things that make it spooky, but that aren't real. He made this picture to send to Baby Miles.
He has been practicing his name, but this was the first time he had ever tried to write anything else. I was so proud and impressed!
Halloween fell on a Saturday which was nice because we had Dad home with us all day! We had a perfect Halloween, in my opinion. We went and saw Hotel Transylvania 2 at the movie theaters. They had big recliner seats that were so comfy. We started with four recliners and ended up with all of us snuggled up on two of them eating popcorn together. Moments like that make my heart so full of joy.
After the movie we put our costumes on and trick or treated around the mall. Nice and easy! On the way home we drove through some neighborhoods that were known for their "spooky" decorations. Ashton was out before he could even finish his candy. We came home and finished the night off with soup, grilled cheese, and candy.
Love these little Kitty Cat Tigers SO MUCH!
