Happy Halloween!

We've had a week long celebration! It started on Monday when we went to Lagoon.  We thought we'd get in one last hurrah. 
 We had a fun time.  We didn't have to wait in any lines and the best part is that Wesley was tall enough to ride some of the bigger rides!
 We took him on The Spider, the Roller coaster and the big Bumper Cars.  He loved them all.
 It's too bad that he couldn't ride more rides earlier.  I think he would have liked them all.
 Until next year Lagoon.
On Wednesday we had our ward party. Dinner and games.
 Face painting, mummy bowling,
 and musical chairs.
 On Thursday Wesley had a preschool program and Jaycee had her school parade and class party.
On Friday we went to Sizzler for lunch.  The kids dressed up, so they got to eat for free.  Then we went to Krispy Kream for free doughnuts and Jamba Juice for free smoothies. Yum.  Then we came home and got ready for Trick or Treating.  The kids had a blast.  They got to go with their cousins, Mae, Kayla, Colton, Joshua, Abbie, Ellie, Luke, Rylee, Logan, Sidney, Reese and Elsie. We were a pretty big group.
After Trick or Treating Mikes mom had a her Halloween party.
 She is always so creative with her food.  She made a casserole in that pumpkin! She also had chili and bread bowls, and Sarah made little smoky mummies.
 These kids are pretty silly!
 They played mummy bowling, the balloon dart game, and find dem bones.
 While Grandma LouLou and Aunt Sheila made homemade doughnuts Emily did face painting for the kids.
 When we got home it was pretty late, but we still need to sort our candy. We were told several times that it could not wait until morning.
Here is Jaycee with her loot.
 And Wesley with his.
They both did pretty good.  The best part is that they wanted to put all their chocolate together to share.  We've had a lot of fun this month celebrating and the kids are already talking about what they are going to be next year.
