Happy Halloween

Well we had a great halloween with tons of trick or treaters, lots of candy and even puke! Poor little brayden woke up Saturday from his nap and puked twice. He felt and looked better so we decided to take him out for fun and candy. (Unfortunately he stayed home from church today because he was puking again. We have a neighborhood trunk or treat at the park so we decided to participate. I was told to plan for 100 to 150 kids so that's just what I did. We filled 129 candy bags. (all bags donated by my mother in law) and then I had a bunch of individual candies to hand out as well. Well after 7 minutes I was out of bags within the next 5-7 minutes I was totally out of candy and there were still kids coming. Crazy. I could not believe how many kids were there. I know now that 10 pounds of candy to hand out is not enough for this neighborhood. McCall was loving the candy and kept trying to eat it with the wrapper on since we didn't unwrap it for her to eat. Here she is indulging herself and showing off her candy!
We also went to our school carnival for a little while. The class that had the most pretickets sales got to silly string the Principal. The poor guy doesn't even like Halloween but was a good sport about getting attacked.
And here is our lovely carved pumpkin and cute minnie mouse, clifford the big red dog, "Luigi" the clown and some of their friends!!
