Trick-or-treat!

Libby getting her face painted

Showing me her butterfly

I think the kids are more excited about the candy than taking a picture

Guess who we ran into? THE PRINCE! Liberty was pretty excited and wanted a picture with him. We also saw a grown up cinderella which Libby thought was pretty cool.

Elliot the Dinosaur
I didn't get a pic of him (so I stole it from Facebook), but Zach aka: mini Nacho Libre came with us too and he was pretty much the coolest kid there. He moves a lot, so that's why this is a little blurry 

On Saturday, a business park in town had trick-or-treating, cider and donuts, face painting, and a creepy Witch who read stories to the kids. Libby enjoyed it. We didn't have the memory card in our camera, so we could only take a couple pictures. The Higginsons and Janelle came along too and we had a lovely afternoon together.

Yesterday we hosted a little Halloween party for Libby and her friends. It was pretty fun. I made some cool food: mummy hotdogs, ghost bananas, pumpkin muffins, cups of dirt (pudding/oreos/gummy worms) and juice boxes wrapped like mummies. We were going to do some games, but when your audience is 2-3 yrs old and they all have siblings who are babies and you are all squashed into a small apartment....it's better to just play with toys and eat snacks. It was a lot of fun though! Unfortunately I didn't take pictures except some of the festive foods on my phone after the kids left....

The weird thing is, today is Halloween and we didn't do anything. The car was in the shop till the afternoon and we are going to Utah tomorrow, and by dinner time Libby was have a meltdowns about everything...so we put the kids to bed and are sort of getting ready for the trip. I should probably wash bottles and clean up a bit...or watch a movie.
