Happy Halloween

These first few pictures are actually from a week ago but they are the best pics I have of our costumes. This is Fireman Caden. Notice he is all in red, his favorite color:

Brecken was our little Tigger complete with all the Bounciness one could ever want:
Mommy the witch... cackle, cackle, cackle.

Daddy was a scary monster. A little too scary in fact. Caden made him wash his face off the very second we got home from the party. He wouldn't let daddy be a scary monster again on Halloween so daddy was a BYU fan instead:

This one is from Halloween day. I learned some things for the next one. This is our first time living somewhere where kids actually come trick or treat. Nobody would come at the apartments. I learned get everyone dressed and ready to go by about 4 pm and kids eating dinner by 5 pm. We had the kids eating at 5:45 and that's when trick or treaters started showing up. Caden wanted to answer the door every time and thus didn't eat his dinner. Brecken was insistant that he would DIE without candy NOW. He wanted the candy we were giving to the trick or treaters. At one point they were both wailing on the top of their lungs. Here's Brecken's give me candy now face:


FINALLLY! The boys are dressed and ready to hit the street trick or treating. Hurry up mom what's taking you so long.

Brecken is diving in after we got home from trick or treating. We didn't know their would be so many kids hitting us up for candy. I bought $10 worth of yummy chocolate and by 7:15 it was all gone. Branson turned off the lights and joined us out trick or treating. Sadly this meant we didn't have candy to join in the trunk or treat that was to start at 8pm. It ended up being ok. We went and had donuts and were pooped out. Poor Caden had had a fever all day and was definitely ready for bed. Kids shouldn't be allowed to be sick on halloween.

Here's sweet little Brecky ZZ asleep on the couch. I think he had a pretty good day and ate about 10 suckers (at least).
