I know there are probably a million blogs showing cute kids dressed up for Halloween so here is ours among those million.
Courtney our little Pumpkin
Shaylee as Mulan
Kelsi as a cowgirl
The girls really had a fun time. We went to the carnival at the school where they had a "Trunk or Treat" and fun games and prizes for the kids. Kelsi, Shaylee and a friend of Kelsi's, Britney, all wanted to go in the haunted house so we got in the line to go in while Britney's mom watched Courtney in the Stroller. As we got closer and closer to the door the girls got more and more nervous. When we got about half way there from our starting point. Shaylee decided she was not so sure about this and she went over with Courtney. We continued on through the line and when we got to front they let the people in front of us go in and Kelsi heard someone scream and she quickly said "I'm not going" and walked over with Shaylee and Courtney. So I ended up going through with Britney. It wasn't to scary for me but it would have scared Kelsi and Shaylee both. And the last thing I was going to do was make them go in. I did get a little startled once when someone grabbed my ankle. After the carnival we went to the park for our ward party where we ate hamburgers and hot dogs and had another "trunk or treat." We didn't stay there long because Courtney was quickly letting us know that it was past her bedtime and she had enough Halloween fun. I'll post more pictures later.
Here is our pumpkin all carved.
This is what it looked like all lite up in the dark.
At the carnival they had these little goats for the kids to pet.
Kelsi got to dress up for her party at school but had to leave the toy guns at home. She brought her stick horse which she has affectionately named Poka Horse.
At the school they have a parade where all of the kids dress in their costumes and walk around the block while all of the parents, grandparents and any others who want can watch. It is really quite fun. There was a lot of Hannah Montanas, princesses and super heroes.
