Halloween Fun

Happy Halloween!
We hope you enjoyed the tricks and treats of the holiday.
We had a fun Halloween this year.
With Halloween falling on a Sunday, we opted to just do our trick-or-treating at the ward Trunk-or-Treat on Saturday night. The kids had a blast! I noticed while we were at the church that Joshua had just as much fun handing candy out as he did getting it, so on Sunday we had the kids dress up in their costumes again and let them hand the candy out to the trick-or-treaters that stopped by.
They loved it!
Joshua sat in the front room for about an hour watching for the next trick-or-treater.
He would get so excited every time someone came.
I loved realizing that his excitement for the holiday
had very little to do with collecting mounds of candy.
And here are the fabulous costume selections for 2010:

Grace started out wanting to be a ballerina,
then she switched to a fairy,
but she couldn't seem to leave out the princess in her completely.
So...we ended up following the "when in doubt just do them all" theory
and ended up with a ballerina fairy princess!

Mr. Joshua wanted to be Spiderman from the beginning.
I even offered to buy him the costume with the awesome muscles sewn into it,
but he just wanted the simple one.
He had been wanting the costume for quite some time, so it was fun to go to
Walmart and make his dreams come true for only $12. :)
Grace had to take a flying picture...she is a fairy after all!



Cute, Cute, Cute.

Hope y'all had a fun Halloween!
