Halloween in St. Louis

Alex is really into the action characters. He is Iron Man for Halloween.

M
Meighan is our little princess.

We spent some time at one of the nice parks.

Lots of fun playing.

The kids like to take pics of us.

We headed to the zoo Thursday night.

There were some really cute costumes.

Alex thought this big kid Iron Man was really neat.

BIG SPIDER!

Lots of stuff to do. Meighan didn't mind this snake, unlike her Grandma.

We were watching a little skit, Alex kept showing the performers his shirt.

This gorgeous tree was in their development.

Picking our pumpkins.

I bought these great looking muffins, but they looked better than they tasted. Did you see those Obama stencils. Paul was going to carve them on the pumpkins but he ran out of time. Dave did not put them on his pumkins, Surprise! There was only one heated politics discussion - not bad.

Meighan looked so cute in the dress I made her.

After carving pumpkins, making candy apples and trick or treating we played Candy Land - first time for the twins. Meighan hung in there but Alex lost interest pretty quick.

We roasted pumpkin seeds - yum.

We took the kids to their first movie - "Beverly Hills Chihuaua". They were very good - stayed put the entire time.

Alex in his Hulk Hands.

Playing around with the vacuum, Daddy gave Alex a mohawk.

Our little Hulk.

Spider man lights that we sent him are hung in his room.

We had a lot of fun, just too short a trip.
