Halloween

Friday Night before the carnival.

Halloween is over, and we survived! Friday night we started with the school carnival. We had fun and the girls enjoyed all the games. I helped in Ash's room for the second half, and I still can't believe how many people there were! When we got home the girls were so wound up. Thankfully, they slept in the next morning.

Katie picked her own costume this year and much to my surprise wanted to be "the prettiest pink fairy princess ever". I think she succeeded.Saturday we got up and had orange pumpkin pancakes for breakfast, and then our day began...

We had a ton to do around here before we left and we started out realizing Ash had left her snow pants at school. I can't even begin to say what a catastrophe this was. At this point I was ready for Halloween to be over. Our day did pick up though. We put on costumes and headed for Chris and Chantelle's. We visited over there and Kami was scared to death of Chris' wig! She eventually said hi to him. We then headed to my fam's to go to the trunk-or-treat. I like having everything contained in the parking lot during the light, but I grew up going house to house. Still, they got tons of candy. I should mention this was Kami's first trunk-or-treat.
After awhile Kami figured out what was going on and just wanted to sit on the ground and go through her bucket. At one point she sucked the wrapper off a sucker and when I took her bucket away...the end of the world!

The end of the world!

She finally got some!

My sis did take them around the block to get the true experience. We had pizza and the girls loved answering the door. I think the night was a success. I am now ready for a break until next year! Funny enough, Halloween use to be one of my favorite holidays, and now with kids I am so glad it is over!
