HaLLoWeEN

We had a busy couple of weekends leading up to Halloween.  It started with our ward trunk or treat.  I spent an hour straightening Aliza's hair to be sleeping beauty and spent 30 mins curling Lilly's hair!  Ben decided to go as the karate kid that night.  Everyone ended up changing their costumes like 3 times over the week so they are never dressed in the same outfit!

 How cute are they!

 Lilly wanted to be like Aliza and dress up as a baby - we went to IHOP for free pancakes!

 Aliza as a baby - this is how she went to school for the book parade

 Lilly dressed as a witch later that day when we went to the fire station

 Our neighborhood had a great festival with lots of bounce houses and games for the kids followed by a costume parade and trick or treating.
Ben and Aliza in yet another costume at the neighborhood costume parade.  Later that night we went to trunk or treat at Kim's ward which was amazing!  The kids got so much candy and had so much fun at the carnival the ward set up inside the church.  It was so much fun and everyone had a fun time.  Halloween night we stayed home and passed out candy since Halloween fell on a Sunday this year.  The kids are already looking forward to next year - yeah halloween!

Ted was BUSTING up at the story about Ben and Hank and the DS. oh man. Nick said he wasn't surprised :) ha! and we were all cracking up at dinner. I LOVE all your photos! the kids are beautiful! and why in the heck don't you have some photos of your house, the whole house, inside and out. Nick said, "we HAVE to go visit Ben's family next summer for sure" but we have a huge expensive family reunion. if for some reason we don't go to it (pricey!) then we may head your way. i say Spring Break would be better, for the weather, but it might be a year from this March...can't wait to see and hear more! I am working tons so I haven't called you back. i'm drowning as usual :) but want to talk to you very much!! xo
