Halloween

We had a good Halloween this year. It was white. There was a big snow storm the Wednesday and Thursday before Halloween, but by Saturday night (Halloween)it was nice outside, a little cold, but nice. We knew Sky needed to have a costume that didn't have a mask that he would need to keep on because he hates things on his face. We tried to find a baseball outfit but could only find one in Broncos colors and Matt would have nothing to do with that. So we ended up getting him a Mr. Incredibles costume that was full of fake muscles on his chest and arms. There is a little black mask that goes over the eyes but even without wearing that, everyone new who he was and all thought that it was a perfect fit for him. We didn't end up going out on Halloween night because we thought Sky already had enough candy from the two Trunk or Treats we had gone to already.

Our ward had a trunk or treat on Saturday the 24th and we went to it. They had a potluck soup dinner, games and then the trunk or treat. I think the most fun that Sky had that night was when he got to roll down the hill by the church. He wants to do it every Sunday, but I won't let him because we don't want him to ruin his church clothes. Well that night was perfect. He didn't have his church clothes on. He liked people giving him candy too, but he still doesn't quite understand the whole concept.

Well he had a second Trunk or Treat to go to anyway. We went to Matt's parent's Trunk or Treat for their ward on the night before Halloween. Sky made his rounds through all the cars and got his candy and then went and sat in the back of Matt's parent's car and ate some of the candy that he had recieved. I think he liked his costume because he could run into things and it didn't really hurt because he had so many muscles.

So on Halloween we figured Sky was probably done with trick or treating, so we went to Matt's parent's house, helped hand out candy and did the annual Halloween puzzle. Skylar had fun watching the "Monster vs. Aliens" Halloween special over and over and over. We thought he would want to hand out the candy or join in on the puzzle but he just ate his candy and hung out. We figure next year we will take him out on the street. And just in case anyone was wondering, no Matt and I didn't dress up.

Well I'm sure some people are wondering if I've had the baby. No I haven't. My due date is the 23rd so I'm still waiting. My guess is I won't end up having the baby until after Thanksgiving or on Thanksgiving just so I can't have all the good food. So that's our life right now, just waiting and waiting and Matt's trying to get as much end of the semester school stuff done before the baby is born. We'll keep you posted. A little better than we have been.
