Halloween Fun




















Friday afternoon, I took the kids to our City's Trick or Treat party at the mall. We went with some of Mackenzie's friends and it was so cute to see the girls trick or treating together. Garrett wasn't very into it. It was really hot outside and his Dinosaur costume was cooking him. We ended up taking half his costume off.















































Mackenzie decided to sit on this blow up witch's brew and ended up on the ground, with the deflated witch....lots of laughs. Poor thing.























On Halloween, we thought we'd sugar up the kids first thing in the morning with Halloween donuts, then we went hiking and to play at the park, then carved pumpkins. Girls vs Boys. Mackenzie and I carved a bat (I wasn't really interested in winning, I was more interested in keeping it simple and easy). Garrett and Daddy carved Scooby Doo with a witch's hat on. Clearly Daddy and Garrett's win!! Great job boys!!!



































Both Blair's parents and my parents came over for dinner and to see the kids in their costumes. My camera's battery died, so I need to get Blair's mom's pictures. For now, here is all I have. Doh, not even a family picture this year. Blair and I went to a Halloween party after taking the kids trick or treating and I meant to get pictures of us dressed up with the kids dressed up, but Garrett was so tired, we put him to bed. Oh yeah, and our camera died. Wow, I'm so on top of it this year ;)

I LOVE the Halloween costumes! I had to laugh that you said Garrett was hot in his costume because here in Utah we bundle these kids up in snow gear to trick or treat! Sounds like you guys had a great day...what did you dress up as??
