Halloween...finally.

Let me tell you, I have the worst luck when it comes to camera's. I can't find the cord to charge my camera so I've been using Ryan's work camera, and like mine, its not a very good one. Then I have to wait for Ryan to transfer them to his lap top, and then to our computer. Its quite an annoying process hence the really late post and pics. I think this whole process really turns me off from taking pics so its lucky I even got any Halloween pics (I actually didn't even take any of Ty and McKenna...I know, awful huh).

Halloween is definitely not my favorite. I could live without Halloween and actually be quite happy. But because I love my kids, we participate. The kids are really into Harry Potter right now. Easy, right. We've got Harry, Ron, and Hermione. My sister made their robes and they turned out fantastic! She is really quite amazing. I bought Gryffindor symbols from Orlando and she ironed them on. Perfect! We really only focused on Nate since he had a school Halloween party. We bought a wand from the Park, and this key chain holder that goes around your neck with the gryffindor colors, which my sister made into a tie (really, she's amazing). Then I searched, and searched for some glasses that looked like Harry Potter's. I finally found some that were not perfect, still a bit oval but the roundest I could find. Yet again my sister pulled through and took some plier's to them and rounded them out so that they were perfect. We drew a little lightening scar, and he was good to go. He looked so good. The perfect little Harry Potter. He had a great time at his school Halloween party!










Halloween day we went to my Grandma's to play with all the cousin's. Everyone looked so cute in their costumes. Then we went to our ward trunk or treat. (we park our cars in our church parking lot and hand out candy from our trunk). It was very successful. we went around the parking lot once, and then we were done. The kids had fun and got a good stash each. The kids just wore there robes over their jackets. Very simple. I'll have to get a good pic of the kids in their robes so you can see how awesome they are. Anyway, it was successful. Glad its over. Now we can focus on Christmas! Yeah. By the way, I'm already done shopping for the kids, minus stockings! Feels great.
