Happy Halloween!

Well our Halloween was a little wild and crazy this year! As we were getting ready to walk out the door to go trick or treating a tornado warning came across the phones. We had to stop and assess the weather and decided to go to the houses right around us. Once the lightening kicked up we hustled back inside just before it started pouring rain! Fortunately the kids were pretty happy with their haul. But then the storm moved through pretty quick and so we headed back out to do a little more trick or treating!

This year Emmie was Harry Potter in Quidditch robes, Ellie was Mary Poppins, Ruthie was Elsa, JP was a knight and Emma was a cat. Even though the weather was crazy and our plans were up in the air most of the day, I think the kids had a lot of fun and they definitely loaded up on candy!

"flying" to the next house!

JP also had his Halloween party at school today which I went and helped with. The kids were so cute and had lots of fun trick or treating at the preschool.

Ghost cupcakes (they were more ghost like on pinterest!), ghost chocolate covered banana, pumpkin ornange, and Halloween pretzels!
