The festivities began this year with our wards annual "Trunk or Treat" This was a good time as usual. Brielle really got it figured out at this event (notice the two lollipops in her mouth at one). She was candy crazy.
For the trunk or treat she was Snow White- which I know makes no sense with her blond hair but she was not having anything to do with the chicken costume we planned on her wearing and she extremely enthused by the princess idea. However, later when I discovered that we had a ladybug costume that fit her, we coerced her into that so that she would be a little bit warmer for the actual Halloween.And on to Pumpkin Carving... a fun family activity. Brayden was most grossed out by the pumpkin "guts", Makenna was surprisingly effective in cleaning her pumpkin mostly by herself and Brielle was just very intrigued by the whole process.
And then on the big day, we started out by attending the festivities at the library for some fun and games.
Then in was off to our local Shadow Lake shopping center for trick or treating, hot chocolate and a hay ride.
And as the excitement of the day continued to build, we had to burn off a little energy.... Brielle was quite good at flapping her wings...
This was our initial crew of kids we went out with. Shortly thereafter our group grew to about 12 kids. As the night progressed each of them began dropping off until one persistent perseverer was left... any guesses on who that might be.Brayden had very sore feet that night :)
