Happy Halloween!!

This Halloween season seemed to be dragged out a little too long! We started three weeks ago with our fall fest at the school, last week we had our ward trunk or treat, and then last night we did the real trick or treating. Yes, I am sure I sound like a party pooper, but I really don't see the need to spread a holiday like Halloween out so long! But, all that being said, the kids had a blast and never complained about receiving candy three weekends in a row.

We still managed to have our annual family fun. We had a "Mummy Party" where we ate mummy pizza, soda, and cupcakes, and played "Kick the Mummy".

On Halloween day we had our annual dinner at "Cluff's Creepy Hallow".  This is when I make up a menu of food with different names and they circle what they want to eat.  I always pick food that I know they like so they get a healthy dinner before we go trick or treating.  For example, Justin's menu this year was Ghost Blood (milk), Intestines drenched in cockroach spit (beef lo mein), and Monster Jaws (apples).  The kids always enjoy doing this.

  

After a healthy meal, we were off to trick or treat.  Here are a few pictures of the kids.  Some better pictures were taken, but I haven't gotten them from my friend, so these will have to do!

Ryan (devil)  and Abigail (angel)

Justin as a "haunted skeleton"

Tyson as a "sumo wrestler"  Rich wore the costume Jeff was suppose to wear.

Emily as "Dorothy"  she really did look cute, but I didn't get a good picture of her with my camera.   I hope you all had a Happy Halloween!!!
