Happy Halloween

I wasn't sure if we'd get around to carving pumpkins this year.  Life has been busy.  But we did.  Gwenevere really didn't like the feel of pumpkin guts she preferred watching Papa.  And since we wouldn't let her use a knife (she was very disappointed) pumpkin carving was left to the big kids.

Gwenevere enjoyed taking the pictures for us

Gwenevere dressed up as a monkey.

She wanted to do her own face paint

We went to Ward's trunk or treat

Grace was a Mouse

Gwenvere a Monkey

Mama a Panda bear

Papa Shaun of the dead (a soon to be zombie)

James's costume was perfect.  After the truck or treat James went on a Zombie run.  

The goal was to run a 5 k run without being caught by the zombies.

It's not real blood it's zombie blood.

Alisha dressed up as a basketball player and went to the ward Trunk or Treat with us.

A few days after Halloween Gwenevere dumped her candy all over the floor.  I gave her 30 minutes to pick it up and even tried to help her pick it up, but she didn't want to.

So after the 30 minutes I gave up and decided to give all of Gwenevere's Halloween candy to Alisha.  I wasn't too excited about letting my 2 year old eat a pound of candy and I didn't really want to drag out having Halloween candy in our house for four months.  So it turned out to be a win win situation and Gwenevere hasn't asked for her Halloween candy since.  

Over all we had a very fun Halloween.
