Halloween Pics

Didn't take very many Halloween photos because it took awhile for me to remember to bring my old camera home from school since I lost the newer camera in Hawaii!  Gah!   We had some fun Halloween adventures, including:  pumpkin patch, Red Butte After Dark with Jessi, Quinn and Patti, trick-or-treating at Wheeler Farm with Tori, Craig, Miles, Jessi, Dalan, Quinn, Sierra, Scott, Odessa and their baby (Hazel, spelling?)  Of course on Halloween we did the usual.  Trick or Treat!  Our neighbors also have a tradition of making soup and scones before trick-or-treating, so we did that.  It's always fun to see what the neighborhood kiddos are dressed up as.  There are a lot of young kids on our street, so half of the houses are "help yourself" bowls.  Seems like everyone kept it pretty honest...there was always candy left at each house!  Yahoo!  It was also my first year at a school that does a Halloween parade.  It was very entertaining and a lot of fun but I can't be thankful enough that it was a short day with no school the following day.  It should be illegal to celebrate Halloween at schools on regular length days, or to have school the day following.  Torture I tell you.  I dressed up as a teacher being eaten by an octopus.  It was a good year for Halloween!
Here are my sparse photos...next year I'll do better!
Mike Wasowski from Monster's Inc, and Sam the turtle.  He wore the same costume last year, but we let him wear it again because has been totally obsessed with turtles for the last couple of months or so.  Turtle this, turtle that.


He thought it was awesome that he could just store his candy in the built in pouch on the front.  He was so excited about all the candy but luckily, aside from the fruit snacks that were given at a few houses, he hasn't even asked to eat any of the candy.  Yes!  To my school prize basket it goes...

It's Hazel. Sorry we got to the farm late and didn't get to spend much time with you.
