Halloween is one of our favorite nights of the year, because we love seeing the costumes from all of our American Adoptions families. And, this year, you didn’t disappoint!

We had some creative submissions this year, and we’re proud to count you all as a part of the American Adoptions family. So, without further ado, here are the top three photos from this year’s contest, as chosen by you:

George IV (age 2) with parents George III and Ashley: “He was Bob Ross, and Mom and Dad were happy tree and fluffy cloud.”

Lily (age 22 months): “Lily is excited for her first adventure as a ‘Lily-Cat.'”

Lilly, the busy bee (age 2), with her beekeeper mommy, Nicole.

Thanks again to all of those who submitted. We love seeing our agency “alums” as they grow up.

Here at American Adoptions, we are always looking to share more photos from our adoptive and birth families. If you have a photo you’d like to share, make sure to tag us on social media with the hashtag #AmericanAdoptions. You could see your photo on our Facebook and Instagram pages!
