Halloween and Trick-or-treating

We had a fun and busy Halloween weekend.  On Thursday Kyler had his school party and he said everyone tried to eat him. Then on Friday Conner had a school party and parade so I took Annie and Kyler and we watched the parade and saw Conner.  He was grinning from ear to ear.  We then drove out to Daddy's work in the afternoon and went trick-or-treating there.  The kids had fun and Annie really liked the idea of getting treats.  When we finished she kept taking off the grab more candy.  When we got back home it was time for the ward party so we ran over there for soup and more trick-or-treating.  On Saturday we went up to Kaysville and had Grandma's annual Halloween feast with mummy meatloaf and witches fingers. After that we did some trick-or-treating with Grandma, Pop Pop, and cousins.  It was raining when we started but by about half way through it let up.  Conner had the perfect costume for the rain and was really enjoying it....Kyler got tired and was dragging his bag by the time we got back to Grandma's house.  Annie was in the stroller the whole time and was quite happy. It was a fun and busy weekend!

Conner in his school parade, they were moving quickly...this was my best shot of him.

Conner leaving a house. He was a great Indy.  I made him his jacket and I am glad I did it finished his out fit and helped him stay dry and warm.  I couldn't find a pattern, so I made it up using an old shirt pattern.  I was very happy with how it turned out and every one said his costume was so authentic so I think the jacket was a hit.

 
Annie was a very cute skunk and she seemed to enjoying it when it was on...but she did not like putting it on.

Kyler helped me make his costume and I think he was quite proud of it.  It was a lot of fun to have him help me.
