Happy Halloween!


 Carving Pumpkins:  Kristi, Tyson, Kira and Kinsey, Chandra, Bracken, Brian, Melissa, Steve, Zedek, and Spencer took the picture.  Tyson: Owl Pumpkin, Chandra (and Daddy): KittyPumpkin, Bracken (proudly designed and cut out on his own): Bat, Kristi: Toothless the Dragon, Melissa: Larry Boy
 The kids had fun at the YM/YW Halloween Carnival.  Bracken thought the vampire teeth he won were awesome.

We had a week full of fun and dress up!  Bracken was a cowboy for the YM/YW Halloween Carinval, a Ninga super hero for Shay's work party, and a race car driver for trunk or treating.  Chandra was a princess, except for Shay's work party when she decided that morning she wanted to be a fairy pirate. (I'd never even heard of a pirate fairy before). So that morning we made Chandra a fairy pirate wand out of paper and ribbon, used a pirate hat Melissa made out of newspaper ages ago, and pulled on black boots and butterfly wings from the dress up.  With Bracken dressing himself as a Superhero ninja (blanket turned into cape, super hero goggles, and mismatched swords) they kind of looked like homeless trick-or-treaters next to all the other kids' store bought or parent made costumes.  But they were so proud of themselves. :) 

On Halloween we went to Shay's work party lunch/trick or treat, and that night went to our ward trunk or treat.  They had a blast and got way too much candy.  On the way home, Chandra kept saying, "This was such a fun day.  Such a fun day!!
Ready for the trunk-or-treat!
 Kira (dressed up as myself), Brian and Kinsey went as doctors, Chandra as a princess and Bracken as a race car driver.
