The Wizard of Oz..."Quad-style"

EEEK! I'm WAAAY behind! We just returned from an amazing Halloween weekend in Austin so I'm trying desperately to catch up.

Here are pics from our Fall Festival a week ago...it was SOOO much fun!

Ethan- Tinman (big hearted)
Andrew- Scarecrow (quirky goofball)
Savannah- Dorothy (the ring leader)
Benjamin- Lion (...do I really need to explain this one? LOL)



The whole fam with "Toto" (give 'em suckers and they sit still!)



This picture of Ethan cracks me UP! He would walk around all stiff--barely moving. How appropriate for Mr. Tin Woodsman! (notice the car in hand? ALWAYS.)



The fabulous foursome making their grand entrance



Ben was the cutest, cuddliest lion with those big cheeks. LOVED his big mane and floppy feet! (not to mention his precious bow-tied tail in the back!)



Sav..Sav..Sav...if looks could kill, darlin'. I promise she is a sweet, happy, smiling girl! How precious is that bumblebee, btw??



Aunt Susan with E, Granna with Drew, Dadda, Mama with Sav, Papa with Ben---in front of the "trunk-or-treating"! (SUCH a FANTASTIC festival! If you are in town next year--you must stop by!)



That crazy lil' scarecrow!



Unca-Col, Aunt Ashley and baby Carter joined us for some fun. FYI: Drew was upset and had just whacked me in the face...it felt awesome.



Cutest lil' monkey I've EVER seen! (baby Carter)



Walking over to ride the horsies...love this pic!



My two fearless dudes: Ethan and Andrew LOVED the horses and were SO upset when their ride was over. (Ben and Sav wouldn't even TOUCH the saddle)



Stopping for some refreshment...



...and on to the bounce house! They were having SOOOO much fun! Best part of the night!



Savi's dress was so beautiful! You can't really tell in the pics, but it has sequins all over and sparkles in the light!



Mr. Sunshine, staying true to his nickname (and spazmatic character).



Papa and Granna with their tired little grand-monkey



Loads of fun were had by all! Especially Mr. Lion



Rummaging through some Halloween loot (Ethan, Andrew, Ben and Sav)



Lots of books- our favorite!


SUCH a bLaSt! Hope you all had a festive Halloween, we sure did! "Wizard of Oz, quad-style" overload coming up next! ;)

I bet you guys were the hit of all of the costumes! So adorable.

Is it my imagination (or the fact that I don't really know any of you) that Baby Carter (very cute little monkey, btw) looks a little like Ben?!!!

Your kids are just too cute for words and make ME want to have quads instead of just twins ;) Can't wait to see the pics from the weekend b/c I just can't get enough of the cuteness! Where did you get their costumes?

Their costumes are ADORABLE! How appropriate too! I live in Fort Worth and I swear I pass by the billboard with the babies on it a few times a day...so cute!

Lollypops come in handy on many occasions at that age. I would giv emy girls a lollypop and they would forget all about getting a shot.

Valerie said...

This is absolutely the most precious thing I have ever seen!!! How will you outdo this next year?

I love the one with you all holding hands...priceless!!!

Shannon K. said...

I am sure they made quite a stir on Halloween! Adorable. I would have so much fun choosing costumes for four. Sad when the day comes that they insist on their own choice.

"Intentionally Katie" said...

That is AWESOME! My daughter wants to be Dorothy for Halloween. I'm thinking my son will be a character and my husband and I might need to step in. Maybe my baby boy could be Toto...?

This was so creative. Our Christmas card picture was Jesus, Mary and baby Jesus and I thought I was pretty cool for doing that. :) The only year it would work for our family was this last year.
