Halloween

Mommy bought Joseph and Audrey's Halloween costumes before baby Katelyn was born. Joseph said he wanted to be a pirate. Audrey didn't have a choice. Mommy saw a cute Minnie Mouse costume at the Disney store and couldn't resist buying it. Katelyn did not get a Halloween costume this year since Mommy didn't want to take a 1-week old baby out in public.

Joseph called himself "Pirate Joe" and really got into Halloween this year. Look at that fierce face!


Audrey screamed when Mommy tried to put on her Minnie Mouse costume. She also did not like the mouse ears and kept pulling them off. Mommy insisted that Audrey wear the costume that Mommy bought for her. Mommy was able to get some pictures of Audrey before she ditched the ears.




The kids were able to wear their Halloween costumes twice. The ward Halloween party was on the tuesday evening before Halloween. There was a chili contest and of course the trunk-or-treat in the parking lot. There was also a hayride and other fun things for the kids to do. Daddy took Joseph and Audrey to the party. Mommy stayed home with Katelyn.

On Halloween, Daddy and Mommy's friend Tania took Joseph, Audrey, and Zoe (Tania's daughter) trick-or-treating around the neighborhood. Daddy pulled the kids in the wagon. Mommy and Katelyn stayed home and handed out candy. Apparently there were some near mishaps involving the wagon tipping over and kids falling out. Daddy said that he needs to think of some other way to transport the kids next year. Afterwards, the kids enjoyed their Halloween treats!


Zoe as a cute strawberry!


Joseph loves those pixie sticks! Mmmm...sugar!


Audrey eating M&M's. She loves CHOCOLATE!


Zoe is Audrey's age and they are like sisters. Zoe and her Mommy drove all the way from Katy, TX to visit and to help Mommy with baby Katelyn.
