Halloween lasted three days long for me at the preschool. We had our big Halloween parade on Wednesday, and then our actual party on Thursday (which Emarie joined us for). And then I have no kids on Friday, but the afternoon kindergarten classes missed their parade, so they came around to trick-or-treat. That night we went to Salt Lake for Steve's grandma Jan's birthday, and then went to Payless with Steve's sisters and their spouses for their crazy 50% off sale!
Actual Halloween on Saturday, we just took Emarie to grandparents houses. She had a blast!
With great-grandma Wilde and Dexter
At Grandpa Mitch and Grandma Jen's
With poor Tank, who was dressed like a chicken, and was so embarrassed and hiding most of the night
Love this picture with Uncle Bryan at grandma Karen's
Fell asleep with a candy wrapper in each hand!
Here's Em in her new boots and tights, some of the many
things we got 50% off!
A few things to remember for next Halloween:
-Spray-on glitter (aka: Fairy Dust) does not easily come off the couch, the tile floor, the car, the carpet and clothes, well pretty much anything!
-No matter how much you love to dress up, your husband might not feel the same way!
-Trying to paint a two year old's face with eyeliner, is definitely not an easy task (that's why she just has the nose at this point!)
-No matter what I do to prevent it, we will continue to be the only ones on our street that get our pumpkins smashed before Halloween.
-If you get home after 8 pm, you probably won't have more than 4 or 5 trick-or-treaters!
-No matter how much you want to tell the big teenage Tongan girls with no costumes, that they don't get candy since they didn't dress up, it's probably not a good idea (they probably would have easily beat me up)!
-Last of all, watching a scary movie on Halloween, is not always a good idea, when it was as disturbing as this one was (which I won't mention!)
