Happy Halloween!

Well, I should probably recount the happenings of our summer since there's been no blog posts to speak of since June! But to spare all the boring details, we're back in Missouri from our Utah internship this past summer, we bought a house, everything is back as it was. Brad's high school team that he coaches just finished their season this week, and don't'cha know his indoor soccer team that he plays on has tryouts this weekend. These things have a way of working out impeccably. I'm teaching one class at the local college and enjoying it. Ellie is 4! and enjoys her preschool class twice a week (the local Sunbeam mom's put it on) and Carter is cute as a button.

I know all you really want to see is photos. So here are some from our most recent Halloween excursions! We had a ward Trunk or Treat on Friday night (costume #1 was Snow White and a pumpkin) and then real Tricking or Treating (Cinderella and a pumpkin (not one of those magic ones that turns into a coach, mind you)) on Halloween night with some friends. Carter and I had fun chilling in our trunk passing out candy (see photo #3). We had a lot of fun with our kids and friends. And yes, Ellie's candy is hid somewhere so I don't find it and eat it all. :)



I did Ellie's hair both nights and was quite happy with how it turned out.




Hope you all had a terribly ghoulish holiday as well! I cannot lie - I have already begun listening to Christmas Music!!!!!!!!!!!!!

These children are ADORABLE! I am about to sue you for cuteness. No, really, expect a call from my lawyer.

Pretty girl. I bet she LOVED her hair. It looks fantastic! And Oreos for the trunk-or-treat? You guys give out awesome Halloween goodies. The poor kids that stopped by our house just got Smarties.
