We went as the 'Phantom' theme to the Masquerade...and what do you know, won the best themed costume as a family. It has been a good year for our award tally, and probably the least we've spent on costumes. The kids have been looking forward to this night for weeks. Our biggest issue was trying to tear Nathan away from his teacher, who he has a HUGE crush on. We caught him dancing with her more than me. It's too soon to be fighting for his attention. It was a wonderful time hanging out and dancing with the entire family. A lot of work and effort was put into this event and I'm thankful the schools put together activities that are low cost and memorable.
Dont' call them Boba Fett or Dead Bride because you are sorely mistaken. Plus, they are tired of correcting people. It's Captain Rex and Gothic Mummy. 
We celebrated Snyder style. We ate great BBQ and had fun with games for the kids.
Nathan won just by outsmarting Randy's rigged blindfold. First, Randy taped his eyes shut. Next, he had a tie for a blind fold, topped by a hat over his eyes. Miraculously, he still managed to see and pin the nose on the pumpkin. 
Her first kiss.
Notice who is carrying the pumpkin pail.
