Happy Hauntings

Simon's birthday was on Friday. He is 4 years old now! I can hardly believe it. We had a little family party for him (except it is always big with 3 families!). He wanted a chocolate cake with chocolate frosting, so that is what he got. He got some Transformers from Granmama and Grandpapa just like he wanted, and a sword and a shield from his cousins. He has been a knight pretty much ever since, he even sleeps with them. So it was a good day for him!


Here are pictures of the kids dressed up for Halloween. I had fun helping out with the boys' parties at school. With Simon I got to help with the pumpkin bowling, and there was a witch who told them a story and made witch's brew with Skeleton Spritz and Snakes Blood. Some kids didn't want to drink it, even after they told them it was really just punch. We had a fun time doing the trick or treating on Main street and then going to our ward Trunk or Treat.

Simon was an adorable bat, Eli was a dog (he wanted to be a golden retriever, this is the closest I could get). And Alice was a cute little ladybug. It was a beautiful 70 degree day on Saturday, so no need to bundle up under costumes.

My cute 3!
