Halloween and Super Heroes

Halloween is a really big deal at Jed's work. Adobe holds a huge Halloween bash. They transform both buildings into a Halloween Carnival/ non-scary Haunted House type attraction. It was so cool. I  can't believe how much money they spend on it. Trick or treating was also really fun. Truman and Annie both participated fully. They loved running up to the houses and getting the candy. 

Annie dressed as Supergirl. After I put her outfit on, she said, "Mom, can I really fly now?" I felt kind of bad telling her no. She was hopping around and we were go go go, so we didn't get great pictures of her, but she looked awesome. Truman dressed as Thor. HIs long curly locks seemed perfect. He looked great. He actually kept the helmet on which was amazing. He also kept trying to say, "BOR". He is so brilliant. I think we have enough candy to last til next Halloween. Its crazy. It was a great Halloween, but it was exhausting. The after holiday bargain shopping topped me over the edge. We found some great deals on some dress-ups, but I am glad its over.

She was bouncing around so much it was hard to keep her shoes on, let alone the boots.

Waiting in line at Adobe was cushy. They had free popcorn, ice cream and cotton candy. They also had magicians and jugglers entertaining the crowd.

The Harry Potter section was our favorite, of course. Hagrid was awesome. 

So Very Handsome

Trick or treating was great. They were a huge hit.

Gardner Village

Last week was Cindy's birthday. We had a girls day out at Gardner Village. Gardner Village is so awesome in the fall. They have a witches village set up where you can tour a house, learn a dance, make an evil brew and bury an evil toad. Annie was really nervous and scared but she stuck it out. She got a pony ride as a reward. We did some shopping and ate lunch. It was really fun. It was a great way to spend a Saturday, a day with the girls. 

Annie is making the most of a frosted donut. She ate the best part, of course.

Halloween 2010

Halloween was really fun this year. I was actually in charge of planning our ward Halloween party activities and games. It was tiring and stressful, but fun. My counselors and I came up with awesome stuff. I am really glad it is over. I came home and slept for like 10 hours. Anyway.. Here are some pictures of the day. Enjoy!

Cutest little Tigger you ever saw, right?

Annie walked around all day saying that she is a "fairy princess".

I had to weave her hair around the crown to make sure it stayed put.

Annie was really freaked out by the Tigger costume until Truman put it on. Then she couldn't get enough.

I was just trying to smile and not freak out when things weren't going exactly as planned. But it was really cute when little girls kept coming up to talk to "Snow White". Annie just kept saying, "Mommy, you're Snow White. You have a pretty dress."

End of the night. Truman is about to fall asleep and Annie is on a  SUGAR high.

One of the activities was a "mummy wrap", a race to see which team can wrap a mummy head to toe the fastest. Jed volunteered obviously, since I planned it.

Tigger and Jed as "the absent-minded magician". We had a rabbit to put on his head without the top hat (hence the absent minded-magician), but Jed being in actual fact absent-minded, forgot to put it on.

I love this picture. Annie snuggling up to Brooklynn's chicken costume. Did I mention she loves anything silky or soft?
