Halloween fun

These pictures are just a compilation of all our Halloween fun. First we have the kids trying on their costumes, we have pumpkin carving pictures, pumpkin coloring pictures (at our ward party which was one of the best ones I have ever been too), then actual trick or treating. Because we live on the edge of town, I didn't think we would get a lot of trick or treaters, but apparently everyone comes out this way. We went through a bag and a half of 150 pieces. Poor Jordan was mortified by Liam. At the end of the night, he would go up to the houses and when a lady would answer the door, he would curtsey as low as possible and say "Hello m'lady." Then he would get his candy, and before walking away he would do it again and say "Goodbye m'lady." Jordan thought it was the most embarrassing thing ever. But, it scored him some full size candy bars. So now she knows what to do for next year. :) Another time we were walking past this little kid who was probably 2 who was dressed as Spiderman. I pointed that out to Liam (who has been obsessed with Spiderman lately) and he walks by and very loudly says "That is ran-dom." Everyone around just busted up laughing. These two little munchkins crack me up.

Family Pictures

For thanksgiving, we went to my brothers house in Tracy, just under an hour and a half away from where we live. It was tons of fun, and when I have caught up all my belated blog posts, I will post pictures from that as well. My sister and her family from Ridgecrest also came up along with my brother and his family coming from Vegas. 17 people in all. Loud, crazy, good food, and tons of fun. That is how I would describe our thanksgiving. Before dinner though, my sister finally finished her birthday present to me and took pictures of all our family. She took pictures of the kids a while ago, but while we were in Ridgecrest, we were swamped with work on our house, and since the house is done, we haven't made the drive down again. So this was perfect time. And the weather was great. My brother had some great places in his backyard for them too. So, here is the link if you would like to go to our shutterfly account and see them all. Here is one for now though.
