Halloween Fun...

The Saturday before Halloween we went as a family to Gardner Village to see the "witches".
It was so fun to get out as a family and spend a whole day together.
After gardner village we went to the ward annual chilie cook off and Halloween party.
Hunter won the prize for best child costume
Grant was feeling a little left out so mom got him a prize for being her favorite pirate.
and James took 2nd place.
Ella didn't dress up that night, but she was super happy and smiley anyway.
Halloween day was full of fun and parties...
Grant and James were invited to a friends party in the morning. They had lots of fun playing Halloween games and being with their friends.
Grant was captin hook and talked James into being Peter Pan so they could fight swords together.
Ella dresses up as a darling wicked witch. I made her costume.
At my grandma phillips party the kids hit a ghost pinata, decorated sugar cookies, roasted hot dogs on a fire and had a great time.
Hunter was a musketeer. I made his costume after a trip to the fabric store where he found the pattern and had to have it. It was worth it in the end because Hunter was so proud of his costume and told everyone that his mom made it and it was a lot of work. Hunter knows how to score the points. Maybe next year I will have the time to make the other boys a musketeer costume and they could be the three musketeers together.


After grandmas party we went to grandma cindy's house for taco soup and fun with the girls.
My camera died right after this shot so I didn't get any more photos of the night, but everyone was dressed darling and they all had a full day of fun.
We love Halloween.
