Catwoman + Mustard (and Ketchup and Fries).

Most years my kids have done a joint costume and I create a pretty epic picture for them. But this year they decided to do their own thing. My youngest and her best buds thought it would be hilarious to go together as mustard, ketchup, and french fries. And they were right! So we headed to our favourite local burger joint, The Tuck Shop for their adorable Halloween picture!

Meanwhile my oldest wanted to go as a ninja or something similar. After a lot of back and forth, she landed on Catwoman! We have a pretty awesome view of the city from our balcony which made the perfect scene for her picture.

On Halloween night just as the sun was setting Catwoman and Mustard headed out in search of Mustard’s missing pieces (and to collect candy of course). They knocked on doors as they headed down the street.

It wasn’t long before they ran in to Hotdog!! That was a very exciting moment for Mustard…and Hotdog! They asked if they had seen Ketchup and Fries, but they had only seen Spicy Mustard and Burger (who was sitting on the porch).

After saying goodbye to Hotdog, Catwoman heard her friends calling. She wished Mustard goodluck as she slipped in to the night off on a new mission to collect as much candy as possible with Cat, Cousin It, Cruella, and Hermes.

As Mustard continued on, it wasn’t long before she saw that big red bottle of Ketchup! Mustard and Ketchup were together again! They skipped down the street feeling almost whole! There was one more missing piece. Fries.

After a whole block, French Fries were nowhere to be found. But they did run in to another Hotdog who said they had not seen Fries but would relay any messages if they ran in to them. After relaying the message, the hunt for Fries continued. This time they had to go through the spookier parts.

After the Candy Take-Out Window they turned the corner, and just around the bend they spotted FRIES!!! Their mission was accomplished. They were reunited and felt complete!

They ate candy while reminiscing about the evening. When it was time to for everyone to pack it in for the night, Mustard called out for Catwoman. Once she arrived they headed home to fall asleep in their pile of candy.

The end.

I was reeeeaaaaally looking forward to this years trick or treating adventure because I jumped on the mirrorless bandwagon and got my hands on the Canon R6!! I also updated my lenses! It has been an absolute dream shooting with this camera. It handles low light much better than I expected.

Astrid and Stormfly Take Flight at Dusk

How to Train Your Dragon is probably our longest running obsession that started almost 8 years ago! Creating their costumes this year was not the easiest! But a whole lot of glue gun action with some minor sewing along with spray painting, and voila! We took a few photos of this fierce duo before the sun set, but of course Toothless saw and he couldn’t resist sneaking up on us for a sweet photobomb!

At Dusk they took flight! Astrid and Stormfly wouldn’t let the rain get in their way of candy collecting! The rain came down very hard at times but they just embraced it and continued on. We started our adventure with lots of friends but the longer Astrid and Stormfly trekked the more friends they would lose to the downpour. These two have weathered many storms together. so as tempting as the hot apple cider and hot chocolate was, they motored on. They were determind. By the time all the candy was collected the rain finally stopped. So they enjoyed their flight home with mouths full of candy.
Once again, our incredible neighbourhood made this holiday super rad!! So many of you wonderful neighbours also embraced the elements and turned what could have been a gloomy Halloween in to yet another epic year! Thank you! Now scroll down to see their adventure!
