Halloween Happenings

This Halloween we went big! Kicked it off with a party at our home with games, cookies, apple bobbing, tricks and treats. School parties were great and even Jayne walked in the Rockwell Elementary parade as a mini twin to her sister. Sam was a ninja for the second year in a row. Seth says Ninjas are "always in style". Ellie and Jayne were beautiful Halloween fairies. Seth was a ghetto street ball player and I was a soccer player. The kids had school off so we packed the day with Halloween. Ellie had a orthopedic doctors appointment in the morning, and she was able to take her walking boot off once and for all! She is very happy to have her leg healed! Taking her boot off was even better than treat or treating to her. We brought our Aunt Amy and cousin Susannah home with us. We sang "I want candy" on the way to Microsoft festivities to get us pumped up. Even the 2 year olds joined in the singing. The kids were able to trick or treat at the offices and got absurd amounts of candy. There was also a buffet, cookies, movie, and more trick or treating in another building. Uncle Scott joined us for a dinner and trick or treating in the neighborhood. The kids had a great time and were so exhausted (just as it should be right?). So now we're dealing with sugar withdrawals. Jayne had a sucker in her mouth for at least 48 hours straight(even in Stake Conference).When given the choice, she would always choose the suckers. Hence, sucker face. But she was great she would always say, "Happy Halloween" to everyone who gave her candy. Grateful to have spent time together!
