HAPPY HALLOWEEN!




Gracie is a witch for Halloween! She says, "I'll get you my pretty!" But she used to say, "I'm pretty my pretty!"
She had fun this week because she got to wear her costume to both of her dance classes this week. Her teacher, Ms. Whitney, is so cute. She brought candy for all of them and even dressed up herself.

We also went to the Kempton's Halloween Party! The highlight was watching Cash struggle to fight off his mom and grandma while they tried to make him the cutest little disco guy ever!



Reese just sat there smiling like a princess the entire time, waiting for a good picture to be taken...so funny!

Jackson & Amanda

Amberly
RROOAAARRRR!

You can't see it, but Ethan is in LOVE with his Jedi braid in back!

NOAH is a "Smarty Pants"!

RYAL is Captain America!


Love these kiddos!

Then our 3 Ward Halloween Carnival was Wednesday night! This was my 3rd year overseeing this activity, and with the help of so many others, this was by far the best year we've had! We think we had over 1500 people there!

It was fun because my mom's ward was one of the three!

Kaylee is a YW now, she she worked a booth for an hour. (she went as an Olympic Medalist) Not sure what happened to the medals she was wearing???



LIZ
Lyn Rae Primary were the 6 "B's"

Carolyn

The missionaries had their own little booth!

Teej & Tre came!

We had over 30 booths, ice cream, cotton candy, popcorn, dunk tank, Haunted House, Train Ride, Bounce House, Movie screen, Face Painting, balloons, dinner, candy, prizes...and the best DJ ever-Shawn Murphy! It really was so fun!

Twinners!
Twinners again!

And we also had some awesome entertainment!

Bro. Cox & Bishop Thacker

Skyler's band played...for the first time ever!
Check out Sky's pants!

I have to say, when it was all over, it was pretty overwhelming when I thought of all the people who came together to help for this awesome community event! I am so thankful to everyone who did so much to make this carnival such a success!

Now time to relax and enjoy Halloween!

Today I went to Ethan's classroom and helped with his little Halloween Party. This is him with one of his 3 girlfriends, Elise Campbell...yep, Chase's little sister! They sit right by eachother, so cute!
Happy Trick-or-Treating!!!

You deserve a week off after planning a Halloween Carnival for that many people! Looked like a lot of FUN though! Your kids costumes are all great, but I especially love Gracie's witch costume. She is adorable!
