Halloween = Cosme e Damião meet Carnaval

Another "first" missed... Oh well, I suppose there will be plenty of other Halloweens to make it up...

I resigned the plan of dressing the whole family Viking style (thx husband for the always super creative mind) after leaving the custom costumes for the last-minute and choosing to spend the last 24h before the H-day at the awesome and isolated family cabin.

Don't take my resignation as 'giving up'! I was certain I would get home from work, dress them in their super cute outfits (featured below) and go "trick or treating" (more like a stroll sans candy). It didn't work as planned (cue in memories of last Christmas): work meeting was late, traffic was bad, babies hadn't napped in the afternoon; naturally when I got home shortly after 6PM they were ready for bed.

We may have "missed" Halloween; neverthless, these boys still had fun!
