Halloween is only ten days away, so I’ve been talking to Annie about potential costume ideas. It should surprise no one that my little fashionista has VERY strong ideas about what she does…or does not…want to be for Halloween.
if you can’t see the video above, click here.
Sorry Annie, but you look cute even when you’re scary.
I’m giving away a Dell Inspiron All-in-One touchscreen computer over on my Babble column! Enter here and here to win!
Bettina says:
I love to dress my little girl with witch costume, but she likes to be a fairy on Halloween. So I have this Princess Fiona Costume and hopes she will like this. It’s a surprise for her…
Jenn says:
Okay….my new favourite!! Loved her little expression in the pumpkin costume. Lets face it though…the kid looks CUTE in EVERYTHING she wears!!
2 questions…..
#1 – Just how many costumes DO you own? WOW!!! I have 3 kids plus we do foster care and we don’t even have that many costumes! ha ha They were great…all of them!!!
#2 – No offense but what the hell was Mike doing with his face at the end of the video? Is that his scary face?!?!? Ha ha ha
Bravo my friends!!! Great, great job on this production!! I CAN’T Wait to show my kids when they get up!! They are HUGE Spohr fans…..must run in the family!! Happy Halloween Friends!!! As always, THANKS FOR SHARING!!!
Ali says:
HOW was Annie not scared of Mike in his makeup? LOL. I would have been scared, and I’m a wee bit older than Annie.
That is the best video yet, I think!
Bampa says:
Annie watched Mike as Heather applied the makeup or it would have never worked. She did give him the hard stare a couple of times but whenever he shook his face Annie couldn’t control her laughter.
Marsha says:
I love your family.
Jen says:
What a great way to start the day! Annie is adorable and getting so big! I love her hair in this video. Also all her sweet dance moves and cute expressions. Thanks for the video!
Meghan says:
That was so cute! My 4yo asked me to play it again and again lol.
Shan says:
She may not wanna be cute for Halloween..but darn if she isn’t one of the most beautiful Dorothy’s I have ever seen! Loved the video and so did Carter who seconds her sentiment!
Jen says:
HAHAHAHAHAHA!! LOVE it you guys crack me up!! Her crying in the dog costume was priceless!! She really is cute in everything she wears!!!

Thanks for that. I love it!
Nikki says:
This video? Awesome sauce.
Annie in the Frankenstein outfit is soooo cute! Black leggings, a blazer and saddle shoes on a 1-year-old?? Loves it.
Have a great weekend!!
Shelley Viestenz says:
I love all your videos and postings, but that was the best EVER!!!The song should become a Halloween classic, seriously!
Rachel R. says:
I love your family. Y’all are just about the cutest thing I’ve ever seen. These videos are always adorable.
Also, Annie is such a doll. I keep thinking she can’t get any cuter, but then she does. How is that even possible?!?!
I hope she and y’all have a wonderful Halloween.
Stacy says:
I love the look on Annie’s face when Mike is doing the moonwalk!
Jennifer says:
Annie is so cute in all those costumes! Where did you get the Dorothy one? I need one in that size.
Tina Guarino says:
This was so freakin adorable!! I can feel it…one day Annie is gonna be a star, you can see it written all over her face! My Boys are 23 and 17 so those cute days are over, but funny thing is they actually wanyed to all carve pumpkins together but wanted nothing to do with it when they were little…. you guys are so talented and funny, did you actually write that song??? If so that is GREAT!!! I could see that on the Disney Channel or Nick Jr. You guys need to start writing for tv…seriously!!! Happy Halloween!!!
Julie says:
You make me laugh, you make me cry, you make me think, and I think you make me be a better parent, THANK YOU!! I look forward to your posts every day! You have a wonderful family, and your girls are so lucky to have you as their mom and dad. I admire you both!
Colleen says:
Your whole family was adorable in the video. This might be my favorite video you guys have done.
And sorry Annie, you are cute even as Frankenstein!
Carrie Montag says:

Giselle says:

Shannan says:
Your family is just the cutest thing ever! And that ice cream costume is ADORABLE!!!
Trisha Vargas says:
Right there at the top of my list for best video ever!!!!
You guys are so much fun!
Megan says:
OMG. I didn’t think you guys could top last year’s Halloween video (I STILL get that song stuck in my head sometimes!) but somehow you did it. Well played, Spohrs. Well played.
Marie says:
She obviously hated the dalmatian costume so I’d scratch that one and go for either Dorothy which she seemed to love or the little purple skirt with the skeleton shirt. Adorable! But you don’t want her crying.
Loved the ruby slippers!
Hugs from Minnesota

AngieM. says:

Jen says:
That was ADORABLE! When is your album dropping?
Stacy says:
LOVE LOVE LOVE! One of the best ones yet! I know my kids are going to ask to watch this over and over when I show them. You look VERY cuuut…er…I mean scary Annie!
Pattie says:
What a fantabulous song! And I’m sorry, but Annie crying while wearing the dalmatian costume cracked me up. She is quite the little Halloween costume model!
Allison Zapata says:
SO GOOD! HA! Love it.
xoxo
Elissa Lerma says:
hands down best video yet! Can’t wait to show my girls. They both LOVE Annie’s videos.
Monica says:
Yea! Love Annie dancing, so cute. She looked scrumptious in every single costume. YOu should take her out the whole weekend so she can debut her cuteness!
Michell DuBose says:
It’s so precious that Annie mouths the words and dances along now. The costumes are all great. My daughter wore her Halloween costumes year round, every day was dress up day around here for years. She had a giant box of dress up clothes and costume jewelry. You guys have fun dressing up with that cutie!
Molly says:
Oh my gosh, Annie is really just breathtakingly beautiful! And so expressive! And I think this song is DESTINED to become a holiday classic. Bravo!
Jeanie says:
So cute, and what a catchy tune.
Kirstin says:
Heather dear, your costumes and gravestones look suspiciously like those I have up in MY house!
(by the way, the stakes on those gravestones STINK, I cannot get them to stay put in the grass)
Im guessing you’re another one of those people that cannot leave a Target without spending $100 or more like me?!
Michele says:
THAT cracked me up. And I must be a very sick person to say the best part was Annie crying wearing the Dalmation costume.
Ashley says:
Ok, so this has to be my FAVORITE video yet from you guys! Thanks for making me smile on what was so far a kinda crappy Friday – you are all awesome!
PS: And also FANTASTIC dancers!
Colleen says:
OMG! So cute!!!
Emily says:
Sorry Annie but THAT WAS ADORBS!!!!!
Terra says:
This is my new favorite video!
AmyinBC says:
Oh MAN!! You guys are too creative! And how Annie is going to love watching these when she is older And what fun you will have showing them to her future partner, heh
Broad says:
OMG you guys are all so flippin adorable I can hardly stand it! That video was awesome! I have been following this blog daily for a lot of years now and I think that takes the cake for best Friday Video you’ve ever created. Its just so cute! I can’t wait to show it to my 3-1/2 year old tomorrow when she wakes up. Kuddos to you guys for being so completely fun and outgoing. You guys are the best!!!
Happy Halloween!

Clara says:
That was the cutest video ever. I love watching your movies. I asked you before, but I forgot, are you just using windows live movie maker? How do you do the voice overs then? I’m looking to create awesome videos of my kids, just like you, but not sure what software to get. I’m not looking for anything complicated.
Mike says:
Hi Clara,
We use iMovie (since we have Macs) and it has all the bells and whistles to do voice overs, title cards, transitions, etc. I think you can do all that stuff too with Windows Live Movie Maker (although I am not familiar with it). Sometimes it just takes some getting used to using these programs which can be kind of complicated. I just found this link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QCCMs5rDeN4 for a YouTube video on how to do voice over with windows live movie maker. There likely are other vids there to help you understand how it works. Good luck!
katrina @ They All Call Me Mom says:
Okay, seriously…you guys are too dang cute!
Annie has some gorgeous hair, but of course you know that already
I think my favorite costume is the mummy. She looks so cute in that one!
Jessica says:
What a great video, I’m a total Halloween wimp but even I thought this was adorable.
Angie [A Whole Lot of Nothing] says:
You guys are ridiculous in the best way.
Bonnie says:
I love how Mike looks like Count Dracula Nixon! lol!
Skye says:
I love this song. You guys are so creative! I’m so jealous of Annie- she’s going to have so many cute videos of her as a little girl to watch as she grows up!
Kristen says:
That Frankenstein costume is pretty much the greatest thing i’ve ever seen.
V says:
Way cute!! Y’all are so talented. Who did the kid voice? That person? Needs to submit a demo.
Mike says:
Heather actually sings it!
Molly says:
I must say…ever since LAST YEAR…I randomly bust out in, “I don’t know what to be for Halloween…” and my kids (ages 8, 4, and 2) love it! They always want to know when there is a new video of Annie! Thanks…she really does have serious fans out here in the world!!
Molly says:
ALSO-hey-could you tell us the story behind Annie BAWLING in the dalmation costume?! Did she really hate it that much?? It was pathetically adorable!
Mike says:
Hi Molly,
For whatever reason Annie was NOT a fan of that costume! And then we took her outside to film and it only made things worse (as you saw). We quickly went inside and took the dog costume off and she was our happy kid again!
Mike
Brittney says:
Homegirls got moves! A little late, but I vote for the ice cream cone.
