I was prepared to let Emilia be the "bumblebee". But when she was presented with the princess dress alternative there was really NO looking back. She was ALL about being a pretty princess. Gavin decided to be the Transformer Bumblebee. Emi got the "Trick or Treat" concept down early and has since tried it out just about everywhere we've been and I would not recommend trying to seperate Emilia from her Jack-O-Lantern trick-or-treat bucket...unless you would like to lose an appendage or suffer from permanent hearing damage from high decibel shrieking. (Don't worry I took it away from her lollypop-drool-sticky fingers and I hid it after she passed out in a sugar induced coma...) I'm starting to remember why Gavin asked Santa for a Jack-O-Lantern last Christmas. We were fortunate in getting to lots of early Halloween activities: pumpkin patches, pumpkin carving, preschool, parties...because when the big day arrived the Henrikson family was out of commission. We had planned on going to the Duck game and trunk or treating but I came down with a bug on Thursday. Now if this is the infamous H1N1 swine flu we are doing exceptionally well thus far. However I have self enforced a quarantine just to be safe and thus we officially MISSED HALLOWEEN!
Princess Emilia!

I'm sorry you're sick and officially missed Halloween. Are you feeling better? The kids ok?
They look SO cute in their costumes! Halloween is so much fun with kids. Your mom and dad are so cool.
LOVE the costumes. Man, you have some cute kids! And..holy cow, look at little Grace..she is all grown up, and so adorable! Any chance they have a blog that you know of? Oh, and random...is the Cragun family on your blog Jenny Cragun? If so, can you mention that I would love to be added to her blog? I miss all of my Eugene friends!
Very cute! Lucy was a Bumblebee, but I could only sell it to her if I told her that she was a Bumblebee Fairy Princess. It worked thankfully cause I had already bought the costume. Such a coniving mother I am. Love your pictures and your blog....this is my first time vistiting. I am new on the blogging scene and still figuring things out.
