Halloween 2009

We had a great evening trick or treating with the girls. Halle was a pirate, Sydney was a witch, and Carlee and Kalee were cats.

We started out at the church at a little party set up for the kids. They played games and ate lots of candy even though they had hot dogs too! :) Sydney won the best girls costume and Carlee won a game because she guessed closest to how much candy was in a bowl. I might have helped with that one. ;) The teenagers were dressed in costume as well to help with the party. Shrek, Kelly Brown, even made the event. Scared poor Carlee to death..... as did John Robert who was some scary something with his face all painted up. She would not let us put her down the entire time we were there. It did not bother Kalee at all. Halle got 2nd in the game of musical chairs which of course she was disappointed that she did not win but she was a good sport. It is always funny to see how strong some of those kids are fighting for a chair!! Too funny.... Thanks to all who helped with that. My kids really enjoyed it!

After we left the church we drove around to let the girls trick or treat family. We eventually parked and strolled the babies and let the big girls walk door to door for candy. Halle ended up ditching us for some of her friends we ran into that were moving a little faster than we were!! :) It is so fun in our little town! We ended up at a trunk or treat where the girls ate and visited with their friends. We headed home around 6:30 which ended up being perfect time before it got to cold on the babies. Everyone's bag was full and running over with candy!!!

Jerry had dinner cooked for us when we got home which was wonderful. The church teenagers came over on a scavenger hunt later in the evening and we built a fire and roasted marshmellows. Halle and Syd also attacked them with a few water balloons when they arrived!! FUN, FUN, FUN

It was the perfect evening to be out with the family! The girls were fast asleep around 9. LOL Halle was the first one. She fell asleep with her boots still on her feet! Thanks to everyone who gave the girls candy!
