Pre-Halloween

We had fun last week with a few pre-halloween activities. We carved pumpkins for FHE activity on Monday. They each got to design their own faces, except for Kelsey of course. She didn't really want much to do with the pumpkins at all.


And on Saturday, though we really didn't have time for it, we went downtown and went trick-or-treating to a bunch of participating stores. It was only for about an hour, and that was enough :). Kenny had taken Ty and Bryn swimming at the YMCA right before we left, and Tyler was the only one who could hurry and get into his costume without any help. So he's the only one who dressed up. Poor kids, if only their mom didn't dislike Halloween so much... anyway it was fun to be with the Reeds. We don't seem them much anymore since we changed wards, and Tyler wanted to get together with a friend, so we called and made a plan.

There was some costume confusion that was frustrating for Ty. You see, I haven't yet been able to find the box with our coats in it. The little girls have theirs, but I can't for the life of me find Tyler's, mine, or Kenny's coats. So Tyler was dressed as a ninja, sword and all. However, the only thing he had to stay warm was his fireman rain coat. People kept asking if he was a fireman or a ninja, or a fireman-ninja? Poor kid.

I am reading your blog with Miriam and she kept on saying: We did that, we did that. I just think its so funny how similar our pre-halloween stuff was to yours. Enoch is a ninja too! I don't really like Halloween, we trick or treated at the businesses- we weren't quite prepared for the cold. And the pumpkin that Bryn designed was like the one that Miriam designed!
