Trunk or Treat

Our friends the Bystroms (Caleb and Ryan) invited us to their Trunk or Treating event at their church so we quickly cleaned up after carving and put on the girls costumes.
Miss Madison was Fancy Nancy, While Kennedy was Ladybug Girl
When we got to the gym Madison met up with Spencer for the cupcake walk.

How cute is baby Gwen the little Hershey Kiss!?

Ryan was Belle- such a beautiful princess
There were tons of kid friendly games and activities and (of course) candy
Madison even had a princess crown painted on her face by Minnie Mouse

It just added to her 'Fanciness'

Check out the Daddy's and their baby girls-
Kennedy was happy to hang out with Daddy until she warmed up
Daddy was happy to hang out with his friend, John- so it all worked out

After game time, there was a costume parade around the gym.
Kennedy loved that idea!

It took a little while for Kennedy to get the hang of the 'walking in a circle' idea
She just wanted to run around

With a little help from Mommy, the girls joined the parade

Then Prince Caleb came along (Miss Mindy sewed his cool cape!) and saved the day with a hand for each Shemenski girl

Did you notice Madison won't take the tootsie pop out of her mouth and Kennedy won't take the oreo out of her hand? These girls and their treats.

MMmmm....oreos

What Mommy didn't realize, the costume parade wasn't just for fun
There was a panel of grown ups checking out all the cute costumes to hand out special awards.
Madison got the very first one!

She was THRILLED with her prize and couldn't wait to get her hands on more lollipops! (and her super cool trophy!) The judges didn't even know what her costume was, but they loved her craziness and sweet smile. Check out Kennedy running around in the background.

Can we say sugar rush?
Seriously, could these girls BE any cuter?
Do you love their costumes as much as we do?
Nothing better than hand made, hand pieced costumes.
Oh, and feather boas, wings, and tu-tus on fancy little girls.
