Happy Halloween!

Halloween was wonderful this year! We started out the day with a party at Payton's school. I got to be in charge of the Halloween party that his class had. It was fun to plan, but I didn't do much else. All of the parents helped with the activities and they did such an awesome job!

They decorated sugar cookies...

Listened to one of the Mom's tell stories...

Waited in line for the bean bag toss...

They had to search for prizes in this guy's stomach...yuck!



After the all the fun activities in the classroom we got to watch the kids walk around in the traditional parade. They did one just for the AM Kindergarten kids. Pretty exciting!

This is Parker & Kyle waiting for the parade to start...

This is our Stake President (or is it Yoda?)...


After we got done with the school activities we went home and took a little break. I let the kids watch a scary halloween movie, "Monsters, Inc." while I made cheese soup and rolls. Then we had to go over to my Grandparents house to trick-or-treat.

Trick-or-Treat...

Payton as Boba Fett & Parker as Yoda


We came back home and headed out trick-or-treating with some of our neighbor friends. Tim took the kids out while I stayed home to hand out candy and feed our family. Tim's family & my family came out to enjoy soup and bring the kids some extra special treats (I didn't think that you gave gifts on Halloween?!?) What a great day!!

Payton should have one an award at school for the most original costume as well as the most overlooked character in Star Wars.

And yes, grandparents can get presents for any holiday or for no holiday. In the Book of Mormon it is referred to as "present time." Reference: 1 Ne 3:20; Mosiah 1:3, 4; Alma 18:38; Alma 23:5
; Alma 36:29; Alma 47:35; 3 Ne 5:15 - Need I continue?
