Halloween--finally!!

I know, I know this is overdue (I keep getting phone calls asking me when I am going to post pics of my kids halloween costumes--so here you go, now leave me alone:) Our first Halloween activity was Friday night at Aspen's school they had a carnival. Each room had different games or activities in them. The kids had fun going from room to room. Aspen was so proud to show Brylee all the places in her school--the library, the office, where the bathrooms were, and her classroom. Then Brian and I went out with some friends that night, we went to Jackpot, NV to eat all-you-can-eat crab and prime rib--yummy! Then Saturday we took it easy most of the day, Brian went golfing. And we all got dressed up and headed for the churches trunk-or-treat. That is the greatest idea, especially for us, because it would take us forever to get any candy by going house to house. After we loaded up there we stopped by some of our friends houses then headed home to do some more trick-or-treating in our neighborhood with the Radford's. It did not take Porter long to catch on, he wouldn't say "trick or treat" for me all day, I was tryingto practice with him. But, as soon as people were giving him candy, he wouldn't stop saying it! And, when we went around our neighborhood, he would let jump out of the stroller and have Courtney and Kaylee carry him up to the next door, get his candy, be carried back, then climb back in the stroller ready for the next house. We all had fun and have WAY too much candy!!

At the cake walk at the school!
Bean bag toss!For Halloween Aspen wanted to be a spider, and I could not find a spider costume anywhere, so I made one (I know-don't fall of your chair) the arms were all connected and moved together, she thought it was wonderful!! Brylee as always wanted to be Cinderella, that was easy enough, we have a dress up dress that worked perfectly!! And we found this cute little skeleton costume that we couldn't pass up for Porter-he even kept the mask on pretty good. And Brian was the headless horseman, and I was a gothic countess.

See all the arms move!!

Always the princess!!

SO cute!!
