Halloween

This was another good Halloween for us, it seemed to last a really long time though! But that's ok. We had a fun activity at our ward where the girls got to play lots of games and decorate cookies. Then we got to go to my mom and dad's wards party. There the girls had so much fun. This was Abi's first real experience with trick or treating, rather trunk or treating. She couldn't believe that we just kept going from car to car and kept getting more candy! This Holiday was perfect for Abi. Then we went trick or treating, it was raining for part of the time, but the girls didn't seem to mind. No matter how heavy Abi's bag got she was not going to let Jamie or me carry (or as she probably imagined steal) her bag. Then on the actual day of Halloween we put on the costumes one last time, well except for Abi because I was tired of hand washing the costume! Then we went up to my mom's and the kids helped her make popcorn balls. I think I am now officially sick of candy, I have pretty much eaten all of the good candy out of my kids buckets so now they are left with the stuff I won't steal. Can anyone explain to me why I wouldn't eat an entire candy bar but have no problem eating fun size after fun size after fun size! Sarah wanted to be a witch, Abi got the hand me down from Sarah. It is an elephant, she didn't really like having the hat on so this is how the costume looked in most of the pictures. Grace wanted to be a tiger. When I first started looking for costumes for Grace all I could find was tiger costumes for toddlers. But finally I found one in her size!
