Dress up Time

Last night we attended our ward's annual chili feed/trunk or treat. Even Steven and I dressed up. Back when we were engaged (waaaay back, eleven years ago) we bought Maid Marion and Robin Hood costumes. This is the third time we have worn them, the last was back in Ellensburg in 2000, and I am happy to say that they still fit nicely. The kids all had fun dressing up, too. Mary and Rebekah were ice skaters, Isaiah was a vampire, and Emma was a red num & num (M&M), her most favorite treat. Benjamin was the scariest thing Steven and I could think of - a teething baby. The food was good - we have decided that we don't have cornbread nearly enough, and afterwards the kids got loads of candy. Next year we want to decorate our trunk and participate in the giving as well as the getting.

Sounds like a fun time! We went to our church halloween fest as well. M went as a spy. A wanted to be a ghost... even found an old sheet and cut out eye holes. 30 minutes before we left he wanted to be something different. Didn't have much, slapped on an eye patch, tied a skull-printed bandana on his head and taped a dvd to his chest... he went as a software pirate.

Sounds like you all had a great time. I miss not being in AZ and going to our park party there. Bill and I always dressed up as something and had a great time. Love to all, Helen
