Halloween

Wednesday October 30th, Lizzy and William had their school Halloween party. We made monster cupcakes.

Halloween: Thursday, October 31st.

Got Sydney all dressed up for the school Halloween Parade that morning.

 We went to walmart after the school parade. Lizzy was super sad for some reason.

Got Lizzy and William all dressed.

Jake stayed home today, so that I could go to the school and do Sydney's class Halloween party.
Jake was so supportive. Helping me get the supplies for it. And drawing up this witch so we could play pin the nose on the witch. The teacher thought I knew about it before hand, but I ended up only having 2 days to plan and get everything for the party. We had pumpkin bowling, pin the nose on the witch, and then we had a snack for the kids to eat while I read two Halloween stories.

Around 3 pm we started getting everyone ready for trick or treating. We dressed them with multiple layers, because it was cold outside, and as the sun went down, supposed to get colder.

below: My parents met us over in the neighborhood by our old apartment to go trick or treating with us. Brett and Bindy met up with us later than we thought because she got stopped at Sams club trying to fix her glasses. My parents were hoping we would quite after and hour and a half and go get pizza, but the kids wanted to continue on and Bindy was just getting there. So they ended up leaving to head home around  6:30/7 PM and we continued on for at least another hour with Bindy and Brett and Skylee before we left.

(see that big brown bag Jake is carrying. We empty the kids bags into when they start getting heavy and start dragging the bags. And this is the second year doing this. And just like last year William threw a huge fit (lasting several minutes) when we dumped his bag in. But halfway through he started figuring it out and wanted to dump his bag after every few houses. Silly little boy.)

At one point William got tired and cold so he stayed in the car with Grandpa. My dad's knees were hurting him so he wasn't walking, he was following us in his car.

At home after our busy day.
