Trick or Treating Times Three

Saturday 10:00 am- Crud they still don't have costumes.
Two days before Halloween, I asked Amy if she had a costume we could borrow. BAM. Dinosaur. Good thing Zane liked it! Avery was more tricky. We started going through her dress up stuff and pondered being a dancer, cheerleader, gymnast, but then found this witch hat. I figured I could hurry and run to hobby lobby and make a tutu to match. I had a few other ideas for the costume, but ran out of time. We were barely ready in time for Storybook Forest (mainly because of a soccer game and then a shoes and tights meltdown which aunt Brittany's tights and Avery's old Jazz shoes fixed the problem thank goodness).Sunday at 4- Austen's Church Halloween Party.
All kinds of fun things there! Free drinks, peanuts, and popcorn along with hamburgers and hotdogs to purchase.
There were a few games inside...
but the real fun was outside! The animal people were here. This time they got to also see a baby alligator! They rode horses, got their face painted, and jumped on big bouncy toys...
There was a Photo Booth...and a free ride that we were all too scared to do...
Sunday at 6:30- Our church's Trunk or Treat.
Most creative trunk...
Cutest costumed couple...
Best makeup job's...the fake nose was awesome.
My little poor neglected witch was a little jealous. Oh well.
Best set up... We made a round of games in the gym, ending with the Pop Walk. Going until they each won a pop. FUN FUN Day!
MONDAY NIGHT
HALLOWEEN
We went to see the infamous Halloween Witch and her spooky house. The kids were a little freaked at first but slowly walked up to her! We were then invited inside!!!
(Zane decided to wear his last years costume this time)
They had drinks to grab and a huge table filled with all sorts of goodies. Should have snapped a picture of it. There was even a sign pointing out the bathroom. We could have just partied there all night, but decided to hit a few houses down the street. Here is a terrible picture of the house. Much more amazing in real life. There was a big spider outside that the kids took a picture with and freaked out when the head moved! On our trick or treating journey, we saw many amazing decorations.
Zane was scared of this table!! And totally freaked out by the gorilla! He gave me his bucket and said "here you go get the candy!" This house had a little courtyard you walked through to get to the front door and those lights say ENTER IF YOU DARE! One day I actually want to decorate my house. This picture is so foggy because they had to walk past decorations that blew smoke! That was the greatest trick or treating neighborhood I've ever seen. Amazing and our buckets were overflowing just going down two streets.
