fred, daphne, shaggy, velma, and scooby doo all stepped out for a night of mystery solving and monster chasing!
Velma has scooby, but don't worry cole has the scooby snacks!
cole and ali had discovered scooby doo on net flicks and it just seemed to fit as the perfect costume choice this year!
as soon as we put on these costumes the kids transformed. and lets just say ali was incredibly committed to her role for a 3 year old. she would only refer to us as daphne, fred, and shaggy when speaking to us. she said "JINKIES!" all night and shaggy of course had his line down, "Zoinks!" and if I ever responded to anything without saying my token line she would remind me, no you are daphne, you say "Jeepers!"
please ignore how voluminous my costume looks at this angle, it was the only family picture I had with fred donning his wig! and check out his awesome 70's jeans. they were the perfect DI find.
coles costume was pure DI as well. and my mom snagged the scooby and most of ali's costume for us.
and mine was a masterpiece whipped up by my friend Ja'nette. she and her family came trick or treating with us. and boy did the kiddos love having friends and a plethora of candy all in one night!
it eventually became much too cold for little ones and mommy's, so we packed in their van to caravan from house to house in warmth. Justin and Ryan thought getting in and out took too much time apparently, so they opted to ride on the side of the vehicle.
so scooby and the gang even had a mystery machine to ride around in.
Jeepers, it was fun!
