A SPOOKTACULAR WEEK!

So we are back in case any of my 5 readers weren't sure. We had a FABULOUS time and we wish we were still on the boat! I will post about it in a couple of days once I go through all of my pictures.

So once we got back we were back into life in no time at all! There were quite a few activities this year for Halloween! Wednesday we had our wards trunk or treat and Lexi kind of got into the swing of things. Thursday she had a party at pre-school, which involved a pinata, and if anyone knows Lexi they know she wants nothing to do with breaking the pinata just collecting it's treasures. Overall she had good time.


Then of course Friday was the big event of HALLOWEEN! We started out at my sisters trunk or treat and then went back to her neighborhood for actual trick or treating. By then Lexi had it down pretty well.

I loved their costumes! I don't know that I could have picked anything better for either of them. They were just so fitting. For Lexi some may say that Christmas came early for her. For Conner it was basically him with a different outfit on. My Mom did such a good job! Thanks Banta! Take a look and you be the judge.



Rapunzel and Popeye were quite the show. Lexi was so excited about how long her hair was going to be for days! I had to hide the hair pieces so she wouldn't ruin them before hand.

Conner held on to his props for a while, but soon realized what he really wanted to hold on to was the bag holding his candy! (smart kid) He wouldn't let go of it for anything! (oh and he wouldn't smile at all the whole night!)

After everyone got back Lexi traded in her golden locks for short curls! I wish you could see how big it was it looked awesome!

We had a fun night! We hope everyone else had a HAPPY HALLOWEEN

as well!
