Halloween 2009

Halloween was SO much fun this year! Caiden wanted to be Bumble Bee from Transformers (mainly because he is yellow and yellow has been Caiden's favorite color his whole life!) Chloe was Dorothy and I have no idea why she picked this costume because she had never seen the movie. So after we got her costume, he watched "The Wizard of Oz" and loves Dorothy even more. :) Halloween started on Wednesday night with a Trunk or Treat at our friend's church and the kids had a blast playing games like pumpkin bowling, decorating cookies and bags and of course getting candy :) On Thursday, the kids both had parties at their schools with even more treats! On Friday, we had a Day Care party and did crafts all morning and then got into our costumes and had a costume party. Oh, and MORE treats! On Halloween, we went up to Rapid for the Sweet Tooth 5K(that will be a separate post) and then went to the parade in town and got to trick or treat at the downtown businesses. Then we headed up to the Rec Center for lots of games and more trick or treating. After a couple of hours of trick-or-treating in town, the kids ended up with 10 pounds of candy (yes, we weighed it!) and probably a couple of cavities! :) We picked our friend, Avryl, for a slumber party and came home to watch "Monsters vs. Aliens" and eat some of that candy (but not a whole bunch!)
