Halloween


Our first Halloween Party was a carnival at the Retirement Home that my Great Aunt Elma lives in. She is 100 years old! We promised her we would take her to the Carnival and we had a blast. This scene was so cute! Caleb climbed up on the couch next to Aunt Elma and snuggled right up to her. They are looking through his loot together. So cute! She just adores him. She takes his little face in her hands and they both get a huge smile.
Treston is sporting his new teeth! He got six teeth in a few weeks, ouch! He is not wearing his costume because fleece costumes don't mix with 90 degree interior temperatures to keep the Grandmas and Grandpas comfortable!
Freaky!
Happy Halloween Aunt Elma! This was her 101st Halloween.

The kids had a Halloween parade at school. FORTUNATELY for us, there was four different days we got to wear costumes!!! Carnivals, school, ward party and Halloween night! Ethan was a skeleton, Caleb was a lion (Can I just say he was ADORABLE), Treston was a monkey and smiled for everyone! Adalyn was Glenda the Good Witch. I just want to say thank you to my Mother because I now know what it is like to spend hours and countless trips to different stores to find all the supplies for a very special little girl costume! We really had a good time creating this costume! It is a good thing that the boy's costumes were store bought! (this is Adalyn with her 2nd grade teacher)

so cute! I know what you mean about spending time on costumes. Anna was only an Indian and it took me a week to figure out what it would look like :) I wish we could see you more often.

I had a dream about your family last night. I was helping you move and your kids were SOOO big. Fun times!!! I think it was because we had Susan Scott over for dinner with the missionaries and she was asking about you and wondering how your family was doing. We miss you and hope you have a great Christmas.
