We had a great Halloween. It was a normal day until dinner was over. Then we got the kids dressed up and played outside for a couple of hours. The weather was beautiful in the mid 60's. The only thing that lacked was Aaron. He had a mid-term today and so had to spend much of his Halloween night studying for a scary exam.
When I uploaded our Halloween pictures, I found this picture on the camera too. What a sweet surprise. This was taken the day we got home from our vacation. I think Aaron missed Carter, what do you think?
Saturday night was our ward chili cook-off & trunk-or-treat. All the kids dressed up and paraded around the gym before heading outside to get candy.

Let's go trick-or-treating

Monkey bum
Olivia loved handing candy out to all the kids that were dressed nicely. She informed me that I had to give candy to anyone dressed scary though. Whenever she would see someone dressed cute or fun walking down the sidewalk, Olivia would yell "come to our house!" It was pretty cute.
Hope you all had a Happy Halloween!

Their costumes were so cute. I loved the pic w/ carter digging out the pumpkin seeds, that is too cute. Olivia is getting so old, she is so beautiful. The pumpkin you carved was very impressive. I could never do anything like that.

Hi, Shayleen! The kids are adorable! They are getting so big. I love all of your halloween pics...too cute!
I love the monkey tail! OK I hope you were being sarcastic when you said you picked a simple pattern because your witch was amazing. I haven't ever progressed from triangles and squares.
I agree w/ everyone's comments: sooooo cute!!!!!!!!!! I love your kids costumes too, they really make them look even more adorable. The monkey tail is so funny and cute. Olivia is a beautiful witch and I like her happy pumpkin too. You guys always do such wonderful pumpkin carvings. It looks like you had lots of fun for the holiday. That's a great family photo too at the end. I hope Aaron survived his tests-what a bummer of a deal. We enjoyed our ward's party too. Its a good family fun event! Happy Halloween~*
Love, Chelsea
