Halloween

For Halloween we did our traditional treats and cider in the garage.  Halloween is so much better this way.
 
 
Nate took the kids trick-or-treating while I stayed and handed out the candy and treats.
 

Our little tiger and unicorn.
 

 
We had such good weather this Halloween I was afraid Callie would get too hot in her costume.  But the weather did cool off pretty quick once the sun went down.  We had a great day!



Pre-School Halloween Parade

Callie's pre-school did a little program on Halloween.  She wore her kitty costume again so when I was drawing on her face that morning Jace decided he wanted to be a kitty too.
 
 
 
The program started out with a parade and all of the morning clasess walked around and paraded in their costumes for all to see. 

 
Callie and her 3 friends from our street.  They are all in the same class.

 
The children sang songs and acted out actions and quoted from a Halloween book.  It was all really cute.

 
Here is a video of part of the program.
 
 
There is one little girl from our neighborhood in a different class so we wanted to get a picture with all the girls, but one ended up leaving before we could take it.

 
Jace and Callie playing in the lobby castle afterwards.


Halloween Parties

We lucked out and had a lot of Halloween festivities and parties to attend (well mostly Callie did).

The Friday before Halloween we had our ward Christmas Party and Trunk-or-treat  Callie wore her unicorn costume.

Jace was a tiger this year which is one of his favorite animals.



I was a devil.  I actually dressed up this year because I preformed in a dance at the party.


On the Sunday before Halloween we had our annual Marx Halloween party at my parents house.  Callie wore her cat costume and Jace refused to dress up.


Callie with her cousins and aunt.


Our pink and black witch and cat.


Carving pumpkins.  Jace was not a big fan of cleaning out the pumpkins.  He just like to cut them.  Callie didn't mind the slimeyness and dug right in.




 
Our Pumpkins - Finished products.  I helped with this one

 
Daddy and Callie did this one

 
Thier Uncle Pat did this one for us.

 
I drew the kitty on this one.

 
The day before Halloween Callie got to dress up for her dance class.


 
Jace decided to dress-up to.  He put on my knee high boots and tried to walk around.  My friends said I should dress him up as Puss and Boots for Halloween.

 
That afternoon Callie went to a friend's Halloween party and she got these Monster teeth as one of her prizes.

October Fun

I feel like this months has just flown by.  Here are some fun photos from the month.

A friend of mine made cinnamon rolls and sold them.  I bought half dozen and Jace loved them.  He ate 2 by himself.  I love this picture.  The cinnamon roll if about the size of his head.


My kids wanted to be ghosts one day so I had to hunt for something in the house they could use.  We ended up with pink shear curtains.  They were lightweight, not too long, and the kids could see through them so no hole cutting required.  I love my pink ghosts!


I love this picture.  Jace definitely takes after his daddy and love raspberries.


One day I found my kids in my closet.  They were dressing up in Nate and my clothes.


Callie dressed herself in white, wrapped her middle with toilet paper and was a "mummy."  Cutest mummy I have ever seen.


We had a couple more days at Cornbelly's at Thanksgiving Point.








Callie had her pre-school pictures taken.  I totally spaced that it was picture day and was reminded by a sign out front when I dropped her off that day.  Luckily they turned out really good.
