Happy Halloween

This year was the first year in a long time that we didn't have a costume theme for our family. I think part of me was secretly hoping everyone's costume would bomb so I could do a theme again next year! However, nobody's did, and we all had a great Halloween!

Craig makes a great Captain Hook and all the kids think his hair is hilarious. I was a scarecrow, Mackenzie was a sassy Sharpay from High School Musical, Madison rocked as Hannah Montana, Clayton was a gallant knight with a very cool sword and shield, and Morgan was the cutest Dorothy ever. (I'm obviously very objective.)


Thursday morning Morgan's preschool class put on a great Halloween program, and to our delight, her teacher was Dorothy, too! Halloween morning Morgan and I helped put on a party for Clayton's class with Miss Hart that really kicked off the excitement of the day. After school we drove to Craig's work for a company trick-or-treat party and were able to see just how creative some of those tech-guys can get! Then we came home to trick-or-treat around the neighborhood. Kenzie and Maddie went off with Courtney but were great about checking in. I supervised the trick-or-treating of Clayton paired up with his bud Jaxon and Morgan with her friend Paige. We had beautiful weather for a Utah Halloween and were able to hit almost every house in the neighborhood. Craig got candy duty at home. All in all it was a great Halloween and the kids ended up with quite the candy stash! Next up - Thanksgiving - and from the sounds of this video, Morgan is getting ready!

Craig looks smashing in his long black curls... looks like you had a fun Halloween.

You say that there was no family theme to your costumes this year. I see one--cute!

Love Craig's luscious locks, I think he should grow his hair out.
