To get ready for the twins' Halloween party at school, Carlisle, Jackson and Will decorated mini pumpkin cupcakes. It was a mess but the finished product was perfect and they seemed to have a great time! This was also an opportunity to introduce Evie Claire to the Eldridge family - she was just sweet as can be! While the big kids decorated their cupcakes, Evie Claire hung out in her bouncer - thankfully she did not get decorated by falling sprinkles!
Later that evening, Carlisle got to hold her baby sister for the first time. She has been amazingly gentle with Evie Claire - she loves to pat her and giggle, it could not be more precious to watch.
Today, we celebrated Halloween with a party at school. Carlisle donned her honey bee costume without too much fuss... Jackson just wasn't in the mood so we left him in a Halloween tee and he was ready to go. Yes, I am reusing their costumes from last year and not feeling a bit guilty about it! The kids had a good time playing games and eating snacks, though the party hit right before nap-time so the room was filled with wailing kids who were nearly ready to crash. On the whole, it was a great time and the kids had a great time with thier friends. Hopefully Saturday's trick or treating will go well, too!
I love this picture - Will and Jackson began "circling the wagons" and eyeing the cupcakes way before snack time!

Love the sweet pics! And LOVE that you are re-using the costumes. Caroline wore the same Snow Princess cotume three times & she is only four. Totally by choice. I almost didn't buy her one this year thinking she would want to wear that one again--I was totally okay with that, too!
Thinking of you lots!
