Happy Halloween!

We had a fun halloween! We had a ward trunk-or-treat at the church parking lot, it was a lot of fun. We had a dinner first in the cultural hall, then took the girls through the rows of cars for some serious candy hauling. Lizzie didn't seem to quite understand it at first, she would take candy out of her bag and give it to people who were passing out candy. Didn't take her long to catch on, though. Later Rod and I watched Addams Family for a little Halloween fun. Wednesday eerily reminded us of what Lizzie will be like in 5 years.

Here's a few pictures (not the best quality, we forgot the camera so we only had our phone to take pictures with):

The girls' pumpkins: yeah right, Rod did these. The girls told him what they wanted and he delivered, in true detail-obessessed fashion. Lizzie wanted a black widow and Caitlin wanted a princess castle....could these girls be any more different?

The fam. My costume was the old standby, the hippie. Everyone kept telling me that I looked like a real hippie. Is that a compliment? Or are they trying to tell me I need to shower more and cut my hair?

The girls assembled their own costumes for the most part. Caitlin is a "wicked, wicked witch", Lizzie is an angel (which is what she was last year, her costume is a little small!). Lizzie actually told me she wanted to be a black widow...I said no way am I making that!

Lots of people knew who Rod was even without his claws! He's been growing his hair out for a few weeks to get more of that Wolverine look! Lots of people remembered last year he was Iron Man, so he's sort of getting a superhero reputation.

What a cute bunny! Of course, she would have been cute as a cockroach....
