Halloween 2012

This year for Halloween we had a little pumpkin, a princess, and a witch. 

Sami and Janie's preschool teacher has lots of Halloween costumes that she lets people borrow. We went over there and Janie fell in love with the "princess" outfit right away. And Sami didn't know what she wanted to be so Mrs. Carole asked if she wanted to be a witch like her. Sami was so excited but there wasn't another witch hat, only a wizard hat, but we still called her a witch because that's what she wanted to be.

I really wanted to have a family Halloween experience. It was tricky because our ward didn't have a trunk or treat and J had to work on Halloween night. So we went to my sister-in-law's ward trunk or treat with her family. It was so fun! So fun that I took the girls back on Halloween night for trick or treating with their cousins.

I think Halloween is so fun, except when it gets too scary. Some people try to scare little kids, and it really does scare my kids. But I love seeing all the little kids running around in costumes. I love all the chocolate. :) I love all the fun things about it. But I am ready to pack it all away the day after Halloween. We have already moved on to Thanksgiving. Except for two big bags of candy on the fridge.
