A Skeleton, Pirate & Princess ........................

Well this year we had Halloween on two nights. Friday night we had our ward Trunk or Treat at the church building. We were lucky enough that our friends saved us a great parking spot so that we could be next to them or we would have been out in the back of the lot.....THANKS Carrie and Ron!!! The ward Halloween Party was the best one we have ever been too. They had the traditional Chili cook off and also a pie/cheesecake cook off. I don't know why this one was different than the rest but I think what I liked was the way that everyone was arranged in the parking lot for the trunk or treating it was safe enough that the kids could basically just run around.....and they did!! I made Taco Soup and our favorite Lemon Cheesecake with a mixed berrie sauce drizzled on top. It was one of the cheesecakes that won in the cook off (I don't think there were that many homemade ones that came though)!! Then on Halloween night we went to Mesa and Trick or Treated and stopped at my mom's church for her trunk or treat. Cooper was at Halloween parties both evenings so no pictures of him.

Rob sat and passed out the candy while I went with the lil kids around from car to car.

Kenna was happy to hang out with her lil best friend Ady.

Walker was happy being a SCARY Skeleton!!

Carter and a group of kids dump their candy out in piles and did a swap. He found this to be SUPER FUN!

Walker went around and got his candy then was done and wanted to sit and eat it while all the rest of the kids were running the parking lot and trunk or treating all the cars again until the candy was gone.

The lil kids had soooo much fun both nights!!

Tanner and Michael

Tanner and Michael went and did their own thing with the rest of the teenagers at the ward Halloween Party.

ooooooooo............ scary Emo teenagers!!!!!!! On Halloween night Tanner went with Michael into Gilbert to hang out and Trick or Treat. I am glad this was the only time my son has painted his nails and put tattoos on and wore earrings and lip rings!!!!! Also glad he was worried that the nail polish would have to be something he could take off so that he would be able to pass the sacrament the next morning. :D
