We had a pretty low key Halloween around here. The Monday before Halloween we carved pumpkins, which is in my top 3 of things I dislike the most. Good thing Josh is a good sport and can carve a pumpkin like a champ. Cayle did her pumpkin all by herself this year and was quite proud.
We celebrated Halloween on Saturday by going to our ward Halloween party. They have dinner in the gym and the kids go around to all the rooms around the church and trick-or-treat and play carnival games. They got just the right amount of candy (not too much) and then we went home to see if we would get any trick-or-treaters. We officially got ZERO this year. Good-more candy for me. :)
We had some interesting costumes this year. I told the kids that it was a "no buying" year and they had to come up with something from home. We have a big dress-up bucket of stuff so I figured they would have no problem coming up with something. The problem ended up being too much choice and none of them could make up their minds until literally hours before we left. A fireman, a doctor, a ghost, a cheerleader, what should I be??? Well Bowen decided to be a hunter, then Peyton decided that was what he wanted to be (of course) so we had to get creative on what they both could wear. Bo decided to be a elk hunter and Peyton was a deer hunter. They both ended up happy. Cayle went a little on the crazy side and went as a old lady who just got out of bed. Everyone at the party kept asking her if she was dressed up as her mom. Ha Ha. I actually don't look that good in the morning so the jokes on them :) And Landon was a pony. Same costume Bo wore at the same age. Easy.
