Halloween Week

Halloween Week finally arrived and along with it came the cold weather. Rylee had been planning her costume since September. Reganne couldn't make up her mind and Ryder found his and wanted to wear it all the time. This year we had a cowgirl, a witch, and an alligator.

Tuesday kicked off the activities with the Ward Carnival and Dinner. The kids had alot of fun with the games, seeing their friends, and of course eating the candy.

Rylee " The Cowgirl"

Reganne: The Cute Witch

Ryder: The Alligator, dragon, or dinasaur.

Thursday was Trunk or Treating with the Dixie State College Athletic Department @ Hansen Stadium. This was a quick trip around the track. It was really cold and the wind was blowing. Afterwards I asked the kids if they had fun? Yes was the quick reply let's do this again next year.

Friday was a busy day. Little Valley Elementary Halloween Party at 9:20. All the kids walked around the track twice. Of course being kids they left their coats inside and were all freezing. I was amazed at the creativity of the costumes. There weren't many store bought ones. There was a toilet, the Geico Money thing, H1N1 Swine.

Next came Trick or Treating @ SkyWestin the afternoon. The buildings were full of kids in costumes. We came home with 3 bags full of candy and 3 tired kids.

Halloween officially came. They were ready to trick or treat around the neighborhood. Ryder had to walk the whole way so it took longer. They had so much fun. We then tried out the Rec Centers Trunk or Treating. It was full of fun, games, and of course more candy.

By 8:30 when we got home everyone was exhausted. Ryder climbed in his bed and promptly fell asleep. The girls had to wind down, but that didn't take long. Thank goodness for the extra hour of sleep. I never thought I would enjoy ending Daylight Savings Time so much.
