Halloween Time!



We began our Halloween adventure October 26th at our Ward's Trunk or Treat! The boys are in their self-selected Halloween Costumes - which worked out perfect. I thought for sure Bentley would want to be Spider Man or Captain America - but he was dead set on being a pirate. Cace is the best Hulk. He wanted to be the Hulk, he Hulk Smashes all of the time without encouragement, so needless to say, the gloves were the best addition to his outfit!! =) Janey was a witch for the night of the Trunk or Treat, but we changed her costume for Halloween! Here's our family in the back of the truck before the festivities begin.



Bentley is in the stage of having a silly face when he takes pictures - cracks me up!
My beautiful little witch - cutest witch I've ever seen!!
Cace and his Hulk smash hands!!



Bentley giving a thumbs up with pumpkin carving!! Jess was awesome and let the boys use finger paints - Bentley did a great job with his pumpkin face. He's actually turning into quite the little artist.



 Cace is enjoying choosing the different colors and painting his face on his pumpkin...he did amazing!

Janey as the sweet little lady bug! This is what we planned on for her costume this Halloween, but Lana had a cute hand me down with the witch costume - so we double dipped!!

This is Halloween night. Everybody's dressed to go (Bryce is taking the picture). He didn't get dressed because he had to go be a policeman the rest of the night. We went trick or treating in our neighborhood and then I met up with Christy and Ryan and the girls. Bryce stayed home with Janey - while the boys and I were hustling from door to door. Brynlee was like sprinting from door to door. We couldn't keep up. I was getting a little frustrated and Bentley says "Mom, look in my bag. I have so much candy. I want to go home." That was all it took. We loaded up and went home. The boys were good with the amount of candy they already had and I learned a lesson that less is more with them. =)




One more fun thing...Janey began crawling on Halloween. It was amazing. She'd been teasing us with rocking back and forth on her hands and knees, but Bryce said Bentley dropped his wood sword and Janey just started hauling across the living room after it. She hasn't stopped since!!


It was a great day. I spoke to all of my family and most importantly my parents. Skype is amazing. I love speaking with them and feeling like they're there. Janey even performed and crawled for them. What a great Halloween!!
