halloween for days

Halloween has come and gone. I hope it was good for everyone. We had some good times, but I have to say, when Saturday came and Halloween week was over, I was one happy mama.

We kicked off the week by going to daddy's work for trick or treating. They got plenty of candy.

^^ I love how Justin is the only one aware of photo time. ^^

 We had a pumpkin carving party with some cousins.

 ^^ how cute are these! Justin's sister brought these. loved them ^^

 ^^ we also made treats for the ward Halloween party ^^

 ^^ I love how Levi washes his face the moment we came home from the party. ^^

Halloween day we stopped at the side of the road to get pictures of the boys in their costumes. We had just come back from McDonalds. We got happy meals for 1.99 for dressing up. Booya. Which explains the messy faces.

 Halloween night was lovely. We had pumpkin pizzas, and good intentions to have eyeball deviled eggs. We just had deviled eggs. Good enough. The boys loved trick or treating. Corbin and Taylor were all about having friends with us. Levi was all about getting to the next house as fast as possible. And Rudger was just stinkin cute saying "trick treat" and "thank you", then he would grab my face and say "trick treating...fun!!"

The highlight for the older three boys is when we climbed in the van with five of their other friends and drove over to the other neighborhood where they don't get a lot of trick or treaters. They scored big time there. I think some good memories were made.

And now, hello November!
