Halloween

Since October 31st was a Sunday this year, and we are in Utah, Halloween was celebrated on Saturday. We spent the morning down at the half marathon race in Provo.

When we got home, Clay decided to hurry and mow the lawn (for the first time!) before we were supposed to get a storm and the temps were going to drop. Will got his play lawn mower out and pushed that thing all over the yard with Clay. It was pretty cute. He was so mad when I had to take him away for a nap (even though he was exhausted)!

That evening, right before trick-or-treating, our neighbors hosted a garage party with yummy food! We have some great neighbors! We had such a fun time, despite the pouring rain! We are really looking forward to this new tradition each year!







Will was completely mesmerized by "Big Buzz" or rather "Joe Buzz" as he called him. He stayed right by him and followed him around for most of the party!



Just as we were finishing up at the party, the rain stopped or at least calmed down so we decided to get started with the trick-or-treating. We went to "Joe Buzz's house" first and Will just wanted to go inside and hang out with him! Forget trick-or-treating! I ran home to start handing out candy and when they walked past our house and Will saw me, he decided he was done and wanted to come inside with me!





We stayed in and ate and passed out candy and played with Gaga and Aidan while Clay and Addie went around the neighborhood. When they came back, I went out with Addie and a few of our neighbors in their car- and that is the only way to trick-or-treat in the cold! We sat in the car and stayed warm and just followed them along the street! It was great! We missed Bennett stopping by so Addie and I ran over there so she could say hi and see him!



It was a fun Halloween- now on to November!!!

Nice catch up! You've been a busy lady. Your kids looked so cute for Halloween and I love that Will wanted to mow the lawn!
