Spook-takular

This year was so much fun with Nick. He LOVED trick-or-treating. He wanted to stay at the last house we went to and just chat. He was telling the homeowners all about chocolate. We had a big party at our house, my headcount was 42 people. Wow. That's all I can say - wow. We had so much fun. The kids were all great, they just ran around having a fun time. We had a couple games and activities for them until it got dark enough to trick-or-treat. It was really wonderful. And the weather here was so nice! It was great for trick-or-treating. Not like doing it in the snow in Klamath! Aaah - memories!

Nick trying on Grandpas wig. Is this what a girl would look like if we had one? Kinda cute, kinda creepy..... Spooky food! Our neighbor, Ron, did both of these fantastic treats! I was so impressed I had to post a picture! The pumpkin aftermath. The Pinata. Now best known as the "Pinata incident" - you don't want to know. Just trust me - never get a pinata. The older kids played "wrap the mummy". Gary and Jacob were the lucky Mummies. Nicks friend Axel and his mommy, Anna. He had a cow costume and his mom was the Cowgirl. They were super cute! What a wonderful crowd! The kids (I think there were 16 kids total) decorating pumpkins. This was a total hit! Will definitely remember that activity to use again in the future! Very well dressed Halloween guests, Wiatt, Melanie and Jacob. The Mummy and Little Miss Muffet.


On Friday we went downtown Corvallis trick-or-treating. It was so much fun! And it was so nice outside! The perfect day. All the pumpkins the kids decorated the night before (they were supposed to take them home, but things were a little chaotic!). So now they look cute on our front door step and they make me smile! The day after Halloween. The hats are still fun!
