Happy Halloween!

It just seemed like yesterday that Kaitlin was Minnie Mouse for Halloween, and we were following her around the UCLA Married Student Housing as she trick-or-treated! We're amazed how time has flown. Nicki took her turn this year as Minnie Mouse.


In fact, here is a picture of Kaitlin at the same age of 3, dressed up for Halloween. We got a lot of comments on our cute frog, until they realized he was actually Squirt the turtle from Finding Nemo. But he sure was a cute little Squirt!

Rich even dressed up for school today, if you can't tell. Since he has to wear a shirt and tie everyday, he decided to go in a polo shirt and khakis, and pretend he was an endodontic resident (they dress in polo shirts and khakis at OSU). In fact, he really tried to act the part by showing up to school late and leaving early! :)


Last year we ended up trick-or-treating in the rain, but tonight we had the most beautiful fall evening. It was about 70 degrees during the day, and it was just right this evening. We had the most beautiful sunset as we finished up our evening. We're not sure how you all do it, but when we get home, we let the kids choose their favorite candies. The ones they don't want, we buy from them, and then we give them away to other kids coming to our house! Quite the handy way to recycle the candy!!! We hope you all had a fun night, we sure did!

They all look so cute!!! I love Squirt!! Minnie is precious! And Mulan is just beautiful. They are getting big so fast. It is so amazing how quickly they grow up.

what a great idea on the candy, I like it. And Squirt looks awesome!!! Can't wait to see you guys for Halloween next year. It's a little cooler up here -- high 40s / low 50s this week. It was nice last night for trick-or-treating, but definitely cooler.

They are soooooo cute!
So, Juli, you were the only one that didn't dress up?

I love all their outfits! I remember the video you took of Kaitie trick or treating around your UCLA apartments! I can't believe it's been 4 years already! Funny how the kids get so much older but we stay the same age, huh? :-)

Love the adorable pictures! I look at the picture of Kaitlyn at 3, and that's exactly how I last remember her! Squirt is too cute:)

Your girls are all so cute. One of these days, we should get all the little girl cousins together for a girl party.
