We're off to see the Wizard

Here are some photos of Ava as Dorothy at Halloween. In the picture below, she is holding hands with her good friend and bumble bee, Emma Walker. Ava is posing with all of our pumpkins. We had a party with several friends and carved jack-o-lanterns. These were the ones that got left at our house.
Here we are dressed as Glenda the Good Witch, the Scarecrow, and Dorothy. Our friends Zach and Kara Sheets completed our ensemble as the Lion and the Tin Man. Unfortunately my camera ran out of juice before we got those pictures. I'll try to get copies from friends because all of the costumes were great. The Flinstones won for best overall, but we were a close second! I love dressing up. Really, I don't even need a reason. . . and when it comes to shoes, Ava doesn't either! She wants to wear her dress up shoes everyday of the week.

Fun, fun! I love dressing up too. Buster and I were going to be Britney Spears and Kevin Federline for our Young Married costume party, but Buster got the stomach flu! I was so mad b/c our costumes were awesome! Hayden and I ended up being party poopers and just wearing our normal clothes. Yall are such a precious little family! Love reading your blog!! Andrea

I love them! The pictures are so great! Ava is such a doll as Dorothy and I love that you and Chad dressed up to match. I love to dress up too! I never need a reason. It looks like you guys have really adjusted to life in Abilene. I am really happy for you. :)

I hate that I keep popping up on your blog wearing ridiculous costumes!

Looks like you had a great Halloween. Y'all are so much fun... we miss the days when you just lived a few miles away!

And Chad, you can check out our blog and see Greg dressed as Handy Manny, if that makes you feel any better.

Summer,
Those costumes are amazing. Is there anything you can't do? I know you all are so enjoying Abilene, but we do miss you here.
