Bianca as "Mario", Ava as "Nala", Joseph as a lion, and Marlee as a ladybug. Very cute!
"80's" Jess and Mandy as Angelina Jolie
Friday was Halloween and we had a wonderful time. In the morning Ava, Joseph and I went to Sioux falls for the day. We stopped at Grandma Sherri's, went to the zoo and picked my mom up so she could come trick or treating with the grand kids. We started the night at our branch Halloween party. I helped plan and decorate for it and it turned out really good. There were some different games, a cake walk, punch and snacks. We also did a trunk or treat for the kids. I got a lot of comments on my costume which was supposed to be an 80's chic. Most people thought I was a street walker. I think it was the big fake eyelashes. Bianca was dressed like Mario, mom was a cute witch and Ava and Joseph were lions. They all looked great. After the party some of our friends and us went trick or treating. The kids had a blast. I think Grandma Julie did too! All the kids were so cute running up to the houses. You could hear them yell "TRICK OR TREAT" a mile away.
My mom spent the night at our house and the girls thought it was really cool that she slept in their room. My dad came down Saturday morning and we had homemade waffles and bacon. The kids always love it when the grandparents from either side of the family come to our house.
After nap time we took the kids to play at Prentis park. The weather has been sooo nice. You wouldn't think it was the beginning of November.
Sunday was great because Joseph actually stayed in nursery without me. He cried at first when he went in so I stayed for a bit. Before I snuck out I told Ava that if he got sad she could sit down and hold him and give him hugs and kisses. After church she said he got sad a couple times and when she hugged him he "kept getting yucky stuff on my shoulder and my dress". I thought that was pretty funny. We went to the park again after nap. Sam always does such a good job playing with the kids at the park. They love it when he pushes and spins them on the tire swing. He usually has a bunch of kids playing with and chasing him. Sometimes we don't even know the kids. The only bad thing about the weekend was daylight savings time. It was dark by 5:45. I wish we could get rid of that. Anyway, when I get pictures of Halloween from Mandi I will post them.
