Our Halloween 2013

'Count Jackula'

 Our ward had a 'Trunk or Treat' the night before Halloween this year.  It was a little much having two late nights in the middle of the week just because Jack still had school to go to the following morn, but we still had a lot of fun.  Peter decided to wear two different costumes this year.  To the Trunk or Treat he was Robin and then a Skeleton on Halloween night.  Olive was dressed as Dora the Explorer, Penelope was 'Boots' the monkey from Dora, I was Swiper the Fox, and Jack was a vampire.  
The kids had a great time eating lots of goodies, playing pumpkin bowling, throwing marshmallows at ghosts, spending time with Grandma (the giant blue M&M), and filling their bags with more sweeties than I could stand! Ha.
Jack with his good friend, Joey.  
And then on Halloween Callie, Josh, and Zoe came up from Monmouth to go out Trick or Treating with us.  All the wee girls were great at marching straight up to the doors to join in with the boys.  Penelope cracked me up with that tail of hers....she always had to be holding onto it. 
These two were having the best time practically running to each door!
There she is with that wee tail again! Ha.
We always get around eighty plus kids at our door on Halloween, which makes it such a busy night, but we love it.

LOVE the costumes!!! You are a cute swiper, Leigh! Your kids are seriously so darling and look like they'd be fun to hang with. I wish we could visit sometime in the near future! I need some Leigh time!
