Happy Halloween!!!

The big day finally arrived! Every year Todd outdoes himself with decorations in the front yard. This year was no exception! So many people stopped by to check out our spooky car crash scene. Neighbors knocked on the door, cars slowed down - we were afraid our Halloween scene was going to cause an actual car crash! It was scary, for sure, but the kids loved it - fake blood and all! We had scary music playing, smoke machine going and a TON of trick or treaters. Todd had to buy more candy around 8 pm because we were running out! The Chamberlains and the Brengards come over to trick or treat with us. My mom brought her famous 9 bean soup (yum!) and Dad passed out candy while we took the kids out. My sister and her friends even came by on their way to a "real" party. It was a frightfully good time!

Can't Get Enough of Halloween!

If there was a Halloween event, we were there! There was so much to choose from this month with all the trick or treating events, costume parties and pumpkin patches. I actually don't even have pictures from ALL the fun stuff we did this month. Here are some pictures of the many October activities we did with the kids! The kids couldn't decide which costumes to use so they used all of them! Audrey was Tinker Bell, a princess and a pirate. Nathan switched from being a pirate to a firefighter.
