Halloween!

The kids were given a choice of what they wanted to be for Halloween this year. 

Eden - rock star

Bentley - ghost

Olive - clown

Karly - Snow White

Eden was very excited to go on a "date" with me to Savers to pick out the items for her costume. She was so thrilled, especially about wearing makeup with it.

 Bentley was a very cute ghost, however it didn't take him long to realize that this costume was actually quite annoying. At the ward trunk or treat party, a few days before Halloween, he kept tripping over it, and he really struggled to see out once it started to get dark. He wore it that night, but decided he would choose a costume he had at home for Halloween night.

Olive was the cutest little clown ever. This costume was perfect for her.  :)

Karly didn't really have to wear the wig, but we tried it for a moment and she was totally weirded out by it.  Once that scary thing came off, she was a very beautiful and sweet Snow White.

With the ward trunk or treat party, Bentley's preschool Halloween party, Eden's ballet Halloween party, and then actual Halloween - we were all costumed out by the time it was over. The kids had so much fun and ended up with TONS of candy.

Here is the completed halloween bag that Eden designed and sewed all by herself. She was so excited about her completed project.

When Halloween night finally rolled around, the kids were so excited to go trick-or-treating. We had to hold them off a bit so while they waited to go out, they watched Disney's Halloween Treat.

Brad stayed home to pass out candy, and I went around the neighborhood with the kids. I love this party. They are so giddy and excited and it's so much fun.

Karly was content as ever to go on a very long walk and soak it all in.

Once we got home, the kids were so excited to check out all their goodies!

Karly ended up getting some sweet tastes through the wrapper of some of them.

It was a great night for all!  Holidays are so much fun with little ones.
