For the first time ever, our kids did not buy costumes this year. Joseph, Hyrum and Lexi are shown here the night of the school carnival. Joseph, unfortunately, was unable to go to the carnival, due to the swine flu. He made the best of it though, by drawing a pig nose on his mask and posed with Lex and Hy for the pictures! Hyrum used pieces from old costumes to be a knight and Lexi dressed up in her Tinker Bell costume she got for Christmas last year. Joseph had the swine flu and so he missed the school carnival but posed in this picture as a kid with swine flu.
Our neighborhood loop is awesome for trick-or-treating. 1-1 1/2 hours around the block and the kids get more candy than they'll ever eat. Lyzie spent more time opening than eating candy. It was like a mini-Christmas for her.
The kids' jack-o-lanterns. Josephs is a rich man, Hyrum's is Super Mouse (a fictional character created by him and his best friend Tanner--they're writing a series of short stories about him) and Lexi's is cotton candy.
Lexi (the lady bug) with her friend Abby (Snow White) and Abby's sisters Olivia and Julia. The ghost in the background I believe looks like Joseph but how he became transparent is a mystery to all of us.
Hyrum went trick-or-treating with his best friend Tanner.
Hyrum dressed like a football player, Joseph like a rich man (he gave every house a fake cash bill after they gave him candy) and Lexi wearing her ladybug costume she wore when she was 2 or 3.
Lexi, Joe and Eliza ready for Trick-or-Treating. The first house we went to no one was there and Lyzie wouldn't leave. I had to carry her away. She eventually got it though and we all had a blast!

Gosh Angie the kids are growing up soo fast! They look so cute in their costumes! I love looking at pictures and finding out how you guys are doing. Are you plans to stay in Colorado? We are still in Tooele hanging out and we had a baby boy in August. He was a preemie weighing only 4 lbs. He is almost 3 mos and doing really good. Have a great day!!!
