Happy Halloween!!

Friday night was our ward Halloween Carnival. Hoyt asked all day if it was time to put on his costume and go....I told him he could get ready after his nap. I think it was the first time in forever that he actually wanted to go down for his nap!! We had a great time at the carnival - I spent most of my time overseeing the cake-walk, but I did get to make the rounds with Hoyt and Ryon to some of the booths so I could take some pictures!

The pirate and the pregnant witch.....NICE!! The witch hat is pretty much my standard costume - one of these days I will get creative and do something different!



Same can be said for Ryon and his "hunter attire". But....at least we try!



Hoyt making the rounds on the cake-walk. He won a great plate of mom's cupcakes.



Donut-on-a-string. Look at that concentration!




Sweeping the spiders under the witch hat




Playing pin-the-face on the jack-o-lantern




At the coloring table with dad - we have enough Halloween art to last us a LONG time!




The witch at 31...almost 32 weeks!!




On Saturday night we headed out to do some trick-or-treating. (I guess that's one of the perks of living in Idaho; trick-or-treating the day before because Halloween falls on a Sunday!)




This was the first year that Hoyt enjoyed going up to the door, knocking, and saying trick-or-treat. After every house he couldn't wait to go to the next. He also kept saying, "Look at how much candy I have - my bucket is heavy!"




The pirate's booty (that is now safely hidden in a cupboard!)

Hoyt's just too cute to be a pirate! I thought they were supposed to be scary-lookin'! Seriously, that is an adorable costume on an adorable boy! And by the way, you look fabulous, Heather! We're so excited for the Murray family!

You are quite possibly the prettiest witch I have EVER seen. Hoyt's costumes are always so well done. He's a darling pirate. I love seeing all the fun things you are doing. The picnic, the pumpkin patch and the freezer jam. You are one busy momma.
