Halloween Stuff

Halloween was fun. I like Halloween, but I do not love it. The kids LOVE it though, so we try to make it fun! 

 We carved our pumpkins on Monday night for Family Home Evening. Normally we are much more into it than we were this year. We kind of went through the motions, but we did not even have candles to light them! How lame is that! 

 Sammi had to work on homework while we carved. Here she is working on her math homework. She is in all AP classes and so her homework load is INSANE (another blog entirely!) but it takes up A LOT of her afternoon time. Poor thing! She never did get to carve her pumpkin! We chucked out all the pumpkins this morning and it made me a little sad to chuck out her non-carved pumpkin. Junior High is a game-changer, that is for sure! 

 Here they are helping Peter Pan fly . . . 

 Cuteness. (And Henry is pretty cute, too. ) :-) 

 The group of Trick or Treat kiddos . . . nice photobomb by the jogger! 

 Beautiful girls. Hanna was a real trooper. She had been really sick that morning, but she was determined to enjoy her Halloween! Did I mention Hanna's mom MADE the girls dresses? She is a wonderful women who is a great example of kindness and service. I love their family! 

 Cool car at Trunk or Treat. 

 There was even a beautiful rainbow! 

 Coolest guy at the party. 

 Henry enjoying being buried in Rice Krispies. They did not have out traditional long licorice whips at Costco this year! What is up with that? The licorice got us, "You are so awesome!" We were not so awesome this year, not even close. Thanks a lot Costco! 

 Missionaries. Cute. 

 Somebody help! What I am I supposed to do with this??? Seriously, it is scaring me! 

Hope you had a great Halloween! I am so glad it is over. I am ready to thoroughly enjoy the holiday season now. I much prefer the season of giving to the holiday of getting! 

Let the Christmas music begin!
