Halloween Night


Halloween is always a fun holiday.  We had a blast at a halloween party where Russ could only stand to wear Spencer's costume (from when he was 5 years old) for about 5 minutes in to the party.  We played some fun games and ate bloody fingers made from peanut butter by Michelle.  O.K. actually I couldn't make myself eat one, but they looked really cool.  

Halloween night Russ and I took turns taking the little girls out trick-or-treating.  They seemed to enjoy gabbing and walking slowly along the way more than they did collecting candy.  A little different than the boys who couldn't run fast enough from house to house trying to get as much candy as possible before the night ended.    They collected around 142 pieces of candy each, gross. But, they have more fun making trades with their candy than anything.  Russ eventually will take the left overs for the candy dish in the Bishop's office.  

Trent and Katie dressed up for a Halloween dance as batman and a ninja turtle.  We later borrowed the same costumes for our adult halloween party.

Korie went out with her friends and some guys trick or treating then came back to the house for ghost stories and games.  She is loving being a 9th grader.
