it's halloween 2011

Halloween Day 2011 started off great- I woke up & wrote to missionary Jack (his email/prep day is Monday) then took Trent to see his favorite Dr. Mike the specialist we go to at the U.

As you can see it's been a gorgeous day! It's the end of term (teacher prep day) so there was no school, which gave us lots of time to get to our important Halloween activities. After the appointment we ran back home- picked up the girls- ate lunch at Arctic Circle- then picked up pumpkins to carve! Nothing like the last minute.

Later Trent got set up & ready for the trick or treator's

he wasn't sure he wanted to go trick or treating or not- he LOVES to give out the candy & isn't a big fan of eating lots of candy... although he does eat more than he used to- we reminded him he doesn't have many years of trick or treating left. so he changed his mind & did go out for a bit.

Chloe the mummy/zombie with her pumpkin all carved & in pain with that fork in it's eye- who knew Chloe could be so scary?

Trent's pumpkin was carved out this year entirely by him- without any help!

We live in the best neighborhood for trick or treators- I love it.

Chloe & Caroline got ready for a party- haha these two are so funny!
