Happy Halloween!

We had a wonderfully spooky Halloween this year! Brandon and John had fun carving "twist" the pumpkin. This is the first year that Brandon scooped out the seeds all by himself. Usually it is way to gross for him! ;)

I love letting Brandon design the pumpkins face...it's always so cute. Never scary. ;)

Brandon doing some creepy crafts!

The week before Halloween was Red Ribbon Week at school, so they got to do something fun each day. Monday everyone wore red, Tuesday they wore matching outfits...

Wednesday was crazy outfit and hair day...

We sprayed Brandon's hair black and had him wear his jacket backwards!

Friday the kids got to wear their costumes! Brandon chose to be Ash Ketchum, the Pokemon trainer.
They had a fun little parade around the playground then a party in the classroom.

Being one of the four room moms for the class, I was able to put on the Halloween party. We kept it simple with a couple treats and a craft. :)

We attended our tri-ward Trunk-or-Treat. There were over 500 people there! Yikes!

Brandon enjoyed target practice, darts, the beanbag toss and face painting.

Brandon LOVED having his face painted!

Here is the best picture of us in our costumes. Not great, but we tried! I sprayed John's hair black for the Trunk-or-Treat, but because it took him two LONG showers to get it out, he did not want me to spray it again on Halloween night. :) He looked great regardless!

We had fun going trick-or-treating with some friends from school. Brandon and Blake looked awesome!

Blake's little sister Brynn really wanted to hold Brandon's stuffed animal Pikachu. He reluctantly let her. ;)

The crew ready to go! It was a great (short) night! We were done getting candy by 7:10pm and had Brandon in bed by 8:15pm. What a great Halloween!
