Halloween Night

We made a haul!!

Kambree, Kenzie, and Addie


Kieran and the Alyssas



Cona and Brooklyn


















Wow, what an awesome Halloween we had this year. I really don't remember Halloween night being so warm, it was so nice that the kids didn't even have to cover up their cute costumes with coats. We did things a little differently this year in our family, I stayed at home and answered the door and Chad took the kids trick or treating. We both agreed that we like this arrangement, I really like to see the kids from school that come trick or treating. If you ever have the desire to witness a traffic jam in Preston Idaho just come out to our neighborhood on Halloween. I gave out about 600 pieces of candy this year!! Well the kids really did have a lot of fun, Kaisley was a pirate, Kambree a hippie, and Kort an obnoxious teenager (didn't even have to buy a costume for that one haha). I have to admit that I am sad to see this holiday go, I Love Halloween!!!

Halloween Party
















Three years ago Sheila and I had a brilliant idea that we would have a Halloween party for the kids. We are now in our third year and going strong, each year it seems to get a little bigger (not so sure about better) . This year we ended up with just about 50 kids. Yah it was a bit crazy but with 50 kids running around how could it not be? We had some fun activities such as candy corn relay, pinata, making thistle spiders, cake walk, candy bar game, feel the mummys insides and the hit seemed to be the mini-yo-yo (the horse walker with swings attached to it). Yah we feel like we might go insane for a few hours, however, when its all over and everyone has gone home we forget about the craziness and have some really fun memories.
