Halloween Festivities

Our Halloween festivities began early in the month with a trunk-or-treat at the YMCA. We got this costume for Liv last year but we were in AZ and it still fits!! I did some mimi face painting on the girls. I know mom, yours is better:)
Liv was a garden fairy and Kate was Tinkerbell
Livy's preschool has a "silly hat parade" instead of letting the kids dress up (LAME). I didn't know people actually got really into it and made crazy hats so I just gave Liv my witch hat. Which is way too big. I laughed till I cried when I saw Liv walk in peering out from under the hat! And of course baby Kate was scared and wouldn't be put down.

Still not sure why she has to wear a hat or why she is on stage
She decided she did not like her hat so Miss Tiffany gave her her hat.
With the new hat, she was ready to perform. She snuck to the front so she could see me
There she is! My little star


And last week I got to go help Johnny's class with their Fall Festival. The kids go to dress up as super hero's for drug awareness "be a hero, don't do drugs" day.

I just had to add a picture of Seongwon, a boy in Johnny's class. I think he is sooo cute. He's about three inches shorter than Johnny and about twice as wide. He's soft as a marshmallow! Like look at the neck roll and the rubber band wrists. And he's SIX! And he has a laugh like Long Duck Dong from "Sixteen Candles".
Saturday was our ward's trunk-or-treat. Another fun night with candy and dressing up!
This is Livy being funny. She is so weird!
Johnny preferred to pass out the candy instead.
I was a bum and didn't decorate my car
Our ward ended up inviting the whole stake so we had TONS of kids there!
Grams, Papa J, and Greg came over Sunday night for dinner and Grams left her car decorated from her trunk or treat so we took some pics before the kids went out.



The kids were so excited to actually knock on doors in the dark, I think they were sick of trunk or treats.

Big kids can do it all by themselves mom!
The kids were SO excited to have Gramz with us!
And we ran into Cody, our neighbor and friend from down the street!

The rest of the night was hilarious with Livy getting spooked by peoples masks (the "scream" mask was her least favorite), dogs, and little haunted houses. She screamed and we would laugh and laugh. And once their little bags were full, we went home and gave all the candy to the rest of the trick or treaters:)
