Great idea!

I am going to follow Michelle's lead in posting our "ghosts of Halloween past" One day I'll make this blog into a book and I'd like to have them posted. So...here goes.

2000: Garrett's first Halloween...our very own frog. I remember taking him out for a photo shoot a few days before Halloween. Such a new Mom thing to do.:)
2001: Our cute little Tigger. I remember having a stroller with Gavin in it and a pumpkin bib on. So cute.:)
2002: We stuffed Gavin into that little frog costume. It worked out great. And watch out for our ferocious lion, Garrett.2003: Have you ever seen such a cute Elephant(Gavin) and Dragon(Garrett). Libbie wore the bib this year and I'm pretty sure there was no stroller in sight since I remember a horrible blizzard on Halloween night. Kenna and I took out the boys to about 4 houses. Brrr!2004: Don't you love recycling costumes? This was our first trunk or treat, where I actually hauled the jack-o-lanterns to the church. UGH...a first and a last. Garrett is our Jack-o-lantern, Gavin is our recycled dragon and Libbie??? Hmmm? I'm at a loss.

2005: Well, I know they were a Vampire, Spiderman, Cinderella. But I have no idea where the picture is -- I'll find it soon, very soon.:)

2006: Mom and Dad finally got into the swing of things. Dad and Gavin had to match, so they were both pirates. Garrett insisted on being skeleton. I made it out of a black sweatsuit so he would be warm. I thought I could pull off a scarecrow -- maybe not.:) And our beautiful princess with some awesome make up and turtleneck, Libbie.

2007: Star Wars Theme -- Garrett is Jengo Fett, Gavin is Boba Fett and Libbie is our tough Princess Leah. Don't forget our cute neighbor Ethan -- Lightning McQueen.
2008: Libbie, the forever princess, Sleeping Beauty. Gavin is the new Sheriff in town and our very own original Hershey Bar -- Garrett.

It's fun to see them all as little ones. You take great pictures.

We need to buy a scanner so we can post old pics. Great idea. All of our kids wore that same elephant costume. Very warm and cute.

Oh my word, Benson wore the same frog costume! I think he wore it for his second birthday, however. So cute!

Great idea to post the past pictures. I have several boxes I need to scan, I think that will be my winter project.

Cute costumes.

I agree with Samantha...you are awesome! Clint frequently talks about what a great person, wife and mother you are...he admires you greatly! Was tickled that I remembered some of these pix/outfits! I can't wait to see the book you make of this blog!

Your children are so beautiful Megan. You are such a lucky mom to have such healthy and happy kids. I hope all is well with the Eborn family.
