Halloween for 4 days straight!

We started off our Halloween week on Wednesday by having dress up day at Pre-school, Talking Time and ballet. Cayman got to wear her Ariel outfit most of the day. She looked so cute and loved dressing up. The wig did not last long though. It was itchy she said. That night we carved pumpkins as a family and invited Grandma Connie over. She came and took pics of us!

Cayman and I got to clean out the pumpkin guts and Cayman did a really good job.

Cooper did not love touching the pumpkin as much as I thought he would. He did try to eat the guts with this huge spoon though. So funny. Then he had a melt down and was not too happy. Jackie and Cj showed up a little bit later and Jackie got to help Cayman carve her pumpkin. Cory carved 2 pumpkin faces and I carved a U. They turned out really good! Here is the finished product all lit up! Pretty spooky!
The next day we had our ward Trunk or Treat. We got ready for the big night!


I dressed up as a vampire and even got Cory to wear a cape. The family in costume turned out pretty cute. We met at 6:30pm and went crazy. We went from trunk to trunk and got candy and then they had donuts and apple juice. Aunt Alli and Uncle Paul came to see the cute little spooks! Cooper was a monkey and just so dang cute! Cayman was Ariel again and posed her heart out! Here she is with her friend Miya.
We had a lot of fun and the kids got tons of candy. Cooper has decided he loves candy so much!!
He will run to the kitchen, point his finger at his bag and sign "more." He cries when he can't have it. Poor kid huh?
The next day was Friday and us and our friends the Neeley's went to Jackie's work to trick or treat the residents. We went last year and had a lot of fun so we wanted to go again. Cayman dressed up as Rapunzel this time and looked just so pretty! Cooper was still a monkey! The kids once again got lots of candy and then we went to Mcdonalds for lunch.
That night we went to the Rec center to the Spooktacular that they put on every year. We took the kids for the first time and had a lot of fun. Cayman played a lot of games and won prizes.


The highlight was when she saw Cinderella!
It was pretty crowded but it was put together really well. They did a great job and once again we dressed up. Cayman this time was Belle. Cooper was....yes, a monkey!
At the end of the night they got icecream and that made for a happy but messy, Cooper.
Finally, Saturday we went trick or treating in the neighborhood. It was a pretty nice day all up until around 5:30 and it started pouring. We went anyways and did a few houses. Cayman was once again a different princess, this time Tiana getting married. I didn't really get a very good one of her but these will work.

I am pooped out from all the Halloween festivities this year. It was fun and we did get a lot of candy!! Here is our loot!
