Little Halloween Bugs

This year the Beckner girls were the Beckner Bug Squad!  This idea all stemmed from a book that Reese and Hadley both love Ladybug Girl. We have worn these costumes out...a family Halloween costume party, dress up at ballet, gymnastics and music class!



Mommy was a spider...I had to be a bug too!

 Daddy was the Orkin Man of course...trying to get all the bugs!  Hadley calls him the "terminator"!

 Today I found this beautiful ladybug testing out the flowers!

 The bugs all geared up for some trick or treats!  We continued our annual tradition of heading over to the Morrow's house for a great dinner and then group trick or treating!  It is always so fun...and Shelli and Mike are the best hosts!

 Our little butterfly hanging onto her loot!
 Bumblebee Bryn taking a break with her sucker!
 Halloween s'mores we made for all of Hadley and Reese's friends at school!  Graham crackers, chocolate and pumpkin marshmallows...pop in microwave for about 10 seconds...and they are good!
 Owl cupcakes for Halloween night!  I made these with marshmallows for eyes...but I think they are better and cuter when you use oreos...but I used what I had this time!  We also made mini cupcakes and used mini vanilla wafers for the eyes!  Reese was the master baker and creator on these!  :)
 Rapunzel (Hadley) and her ballet buddy Belle (Millie)

WE hope you all had a fun and safe Halloween...our house has way too much candy...I am hoping that the girls won't notice when I throw it away in a week...that is MY tradition!

Love the little and big bugs. Looks and sounds like everyone had fun. Glad the Orkin man left the good bugs alone. And the celebration dancin' those girls do. Can they ever get down. And Daddy, it's only gonna get worse! Love and hugs to all,
