And More Halloween

The primary threw the Ward Halloween party so I didn't end up getting any pictures of that. The best I have is of the cat and dog collaborating on a coloring project after the trunk or treat fun.

Frankenstorm almost destroyed Halloween but we were able to kind of salvage it.  The actual night of Halloween Jill was SO upset. We let her dress up anyways and we went to "reverse trick or treat" some friends in the storm. Then a few days later our city had a make up Halloween day. Here is Cooper with his bud Kelsey on the big day.

All the trick or treaters. I love Jill in this pic.


Just can't capture them all looking at once.


I could not get any good pictures of actual trick or treating. The kids sound so cute saying "trick or treat." You can hear them yelling it in the above video. Tucker told me at one of the first houses Cooper forgot what to say and just told them "Candy.. my bucket"... I guess that pretty much explains it : ).



Jill's preschool has been canceled for 2 weeks because of flooding from the storms.  We've enjoyed a few "pajama parties" on the unscheduled days off.

Pumpkin carving

Me looking my best. On the fireplace you can see some decorations the kids made. They are ghosts and spiders. The kids thought the seeds were "yucky!"


Tucker really focusing here. The kids had been dancing around but paused to watch Daddy work.

Jack the Pumpkin King. Cooper yells pumpkin king at him every time we pull out of the driveway.

Dogs and Cats at Carnival

Jill and Cooper were a cat and dog for Halloween this year. They both seemed to have a lot of fun with their costumes. We did quite a few Halloween events this year, as usual. We kicked it all off by going to a carnival thrown by a group from Tuck's school.


Coop is still working on the smiling on command thing.

Jill loved her tail and her "make up."

She has always enjoyed posing.

We'll take what we can get for poses here.

I think Cooper won like 3 cupcakes here.

Sweet Kids. Happy Halloween!
