Halloween

Jonah went with Ellen to the Halloween dance.  I love that he goes with different people to all the dances.

Jonah was able to borrow his costume from James.  Ellen came over early and helped him with his make up and hair dye.

I love to see the pictures they post on Instagram.

They did their day date the night before and went to a cabin to play games and carve pumpkins.

Jonah loved being in a group with all his best friends.

He had a great time.

Hallee helped me make our Halloween dinner a few days before Halloween.

I asked the kids if they wanted it this year and they all did, so that made me happy.

Wyatt decided last minute to dress up for school.  He was pretty proud of this costume he put together.  He went trick-or-treating with a friend. 

Hallee debated about dressing up for school and finally decided against it. She said she regretted not dressing up because most of her friends dressed up.

She wore her costume from last year for trick-or-treating.

Hallee and I went to Tiff's for dinner and trick-or-treating. Tiff was so nice to feed all of us.

We loved having grandma and grandpa go trick-or-treating with us.

Tiff took great care of mom while we were trick-or-treating.  Mom kept saying, "Can we be done with Halloween now?"  She is not a fan of Halloween, especially the scary decorations.  Paul was so nice and took the kids around after me, Tiff, mom and dad went back to their house. It was fun to be able to visit with mom and dad for a while.  At one point mom and dad were laughing so hard telling us about how they can't find anything and how mom leaves things everywhere, like the barber shop and they have to go back and gather up her things.  I love to see them laugh. Life is pretty heavy for them, so any laughter and joy is a treasure!

The kids did a quick candy trade before we headed home.  It was a fun night. 

Caitlyn and her roommates dressed up and went to the scream at SUU.  She said it was fun. 

She dressed up like Cam from Modern Family.  Nailed it!
