Everyday I would ask McKay what he wanted to be for Halloween this year and his answer was always, "Ima be a cat." So I thought I would suggest some other ideas to see what he would say and he would respond with, "No, Ima be a cat." I even tried to dress him up in a really cute costume with balloons and he fought it. So we got out my eye liner and black construction paper and vuala! We were a family of cats!
We took McKay trick-or-treating on a street here that really goes all out for Halloween. I wish we would have taken better pictures of the houses (and the crowd) but it was hard to capture it. They block off 2 blocks starting at 4pm and let the kids got door to door. We had to take these over and over because there were people walking in front of us the whole time. ps-McKay will not take off his new monkey leash. Tonight I had to take it off after he fell asleep. I sure hope that lasts when we're walking the streets!
On our way to 78th street we started trick-or-treating in the stores and this spider was in front of a restaurant. McKay was fascinated but wouldn't get close to it until I picked him up . This was after he warmed up a bit. 
Of course we could miss out on carving pumpkins and couldn't resist putting our little pumpkin inside for some shots.
McKay drew the face (at least the one incredibly large eye) and Noah carved it out.

Kristi, you are my hero. Seriously, you are SO good at just pulling things together and making it work. Like who would ever think...oh, I just need some black construction paper and a little black eye liner for a cat costume?!
No, most Mom's would go to PB Kids and buy some 30 dollar costume that their kid doesn't even like and then force them to wear it for a picture so they can post it on their blog.
I think you make one sexy cat family...and by the way, you guys have the best picture ideas ever!

Hey Kristi, thanks for your nice comment on our blog. I for sure am the one who needs to be more like you though! I often wonder what you'd do in a situation and then know the right thing to do.
