Happy Halloween!
Tonight we went around the neighborhood for yet even more candy, not that the kids need any more. We should have enough to last us through the year! It was actually not too cold tonight. Last year was so cold we had to get in and out of Jeremy's car so we could warm up. Tonight we just walked, and we didn't even need to wear our parkas. Think Christmas Story, "I can't put my arms down." You could actually see their costumes tonight because they weren't hidden under their jackets. After we went around the block, we drove over to a few friends houses and then came home to pass out candy. We had about 100 trick-or-treaters. A lot more than last year since we've had so many new families build in the neighborhood. We had a good time, but I'm glad Halloween is over now. It's been a very busy week.

Trunk-Or-Treat
We had a good time at the Trunk-or-Treat party tonight. Mallorie has been into the movie Flicka lately. So she wanted to be Katie, the girl from the movie, with wavy hair. I drew a beard on Kolby and people laughed at that. He wasn't sure he liked all of the attention. One guy from the ward asked Kolby where he got his beard from, and he said "from my mom." I told the guy that facial hair ran in the family among our women. The kids got lots of candy and had fun seeing all of their friends. Grandma Terri made the costumes for Kolby and Mallorie, and they were a definate hit. They will wear them again Tuesday when we go trick-or-treating at Melaleuca and again on Halloween night.

Fall Festival
October 13,2007
We went to the Fall Festival at Freeman Park with our friends, the Potters. It was a lot of fun. This was the first time we had ever been to Freeman park. It was so pretty, especially this time of year with the leaves changing colors. It's right by the river too, so that made it even more beautiful. Mallorie got to ride on a little train ride. She loves rides. Kolby, however wouldn't ride on it. I think he's going to take after his mother when it comes to rides. After that, we walked around looking at the various booths. They had a live band, face painting, and several different crafts for sale. There was even a guy carving pumpkins with a chainsaw. We had to leave earlier than we had planned, though because Tricia wasn't feeling well and was cold. So we went to dinner afterwards to Bubba's BBQ instead of eating at the park. Bubba's is sooooo good!
