This year Halloween is on a Monday and the district decided to have all the schools be out for a prep day. So because of that they all had parties on the Friday prior. It also happened to be our ward Halloween party and dinner that night. The girls were so excited to get all dressed up and ready to go. They were pretty decisive this year and didn't change their minds a bunch of times. Emy wanted to be Hermine from Harry Potter...thank you Costco for the perfect and affordable costume.
Gracie really wanted to be Sleeping Beauty I really thought she would change her mind but she remembered a dress that Joy had in her costume collection and so she called and asked if she could borrow it and she was all set.
Once we got the girls off to school Liam and I made cupcakes for the ward party that night and they were fun to make and turned out really cute.
At the party after dinner they had several carnival games for the kids to play. They wandered around and played games while we visited so I didn't get many pictures. After the games we headed outside to the trunk or treat in the parking lot. We invited so of our new neighbors to come and get to know some more people so that was fun and a good way to get to know them. Also we had some ward friends that don't usually come but they came to the trunk or treat only problem was they started a little bit early so they missed out on a little bit of it. So we ended up standing in the parking lot visiting for quite a while. It was a fun day overall. I don't love most of Halloween because of all the gross scary stuff but parties like to day are so fun.
