Halloween Festivities


Halloween is one our favorite holidays because it is low stress and we get to dress up in costumes.  There were a lot of fun Halloween festivities this year.  I had fun at the youth dance for our stake at church.  Then there was the fun preschool party for CJ, the trunk or treat, the carving of pumpkins, and of course the big night. 

The kids loved wearing their Halloween T-shirts all month long.

My Roller Derby Girl costume.  All the young women leaders dressed like roller girls too.


Checking out the gold fishes Merideth and Cowboy won that night at the trunk-or-treat playing games.

Taj reminds me so much of CJ when he was a little guy.

Tying up Papa is one of CJ's most favorite pass times.

Jumping his horse.
Papa tied a rope around Brownie's neck and pulled him along.   It was so cute!
Down town was really fun.  CJ loved playing b-ball and going down the slides.

We met up with some friends down there.
Trick-or-treating at our neighbors Randy and Debby's house.  CJ is so cute in this picture because he's trying to do hang loose, but his little fingers just cant get into position.
