Hallo-week of Fun

We started off the Halloween festivities with the Pumpkin Patch. That's the place you go to pick out your pumpkin and get ripped off on rides (4 bucks a ride!) I had to let Kalli go on at least one though :)


We saw a few friends there as well - a great family night activity.



Next on the schedule was a ward Trunk or Treat Party.
Kalli was a beautiful ballerina
Fancy Nancy (Tess) and Kalli did the cake walk and many other games. They had a great time. Afterward, Nate and I had a Halloween Party to attend and this is what we went as...
80's prom queen and Nate...
a silver man 'statue'
The party was fun and there were some great costumes. The Forests came as Paper Dolls - so creative!
Last, but definitely not least, was the big night - Halloween. We went with the Forests to Oak Street in Laguna Beach. The neighborhood is so festive and every house is decorated with Halloween gear; we loved it.

Loading up
I ran into Katrina and Noel at one of the houses in their awesome vampire costumes
So, you would think the night was over when we left Laguna, but no, we had one more place to hit. There was a free carnival at the Aliso Viejo Town Center that we wanted to check out. We met the Savages there and let the kids go on a couple FREE rides. It was fun and a great way to end the night.

Kalli didn't quite know what to think of the swings

A pirate, ballerina and 2 princesses-quite the group :)
Whew! What a week!

Nice to see that you and Nate, also participated in all of the festivities. I love the pictures of your costumes. What is up with knocking the 80's - ha ha ... can't help but not to. Maybe next time, you can sport some super tight pegged pants

So Darling. Seeing the costumes reminded me that it must not be as cold in California!!!!

That Ballerina was the perfect costume and it is sooo right for Kalli! She looks like an angel! And it looks like you didn't have a bad time either!

Your "80's Prom Queen brought back memories of when I took your mother to the Prom.

It's amazing how close your costume was like your mother's Prom dress!

Did you sneak out her Promo dress out of our attic?
