Happy Halloween

Well, this year's Halloween was a little less happy than normal.  For starters, I sprained my ankle the day prior, so Daddy had to handle all trick-or-treating, not to mention Halloween day's many activities.  Halloween day was a little crazy, with back-to-back soccer games, end of the season soccer parties, and a friend's birthday party.  To top it off, temperatures rose high into the 80s, making the boys hot in their dinosaur costumes.  The dinosaur heads were promptly discarded before treat gathering even began.  Even our little paleontologist rejected her pith helmet early on, despite loving it previously.  Anyhoo, better luck next year.  I'm thinking we go as "whiny kids" next year.  What do you think?  Will the costumes be difficult to assemble or the character too challenging for the children to emulate?
