Halloween!

So Halloween has come and gone, but we still find the need to show our pictures from Halloween. The commentary will not be too lengthy, so enjoy!


First you start Halloween with a classic school Halloween party!



Teenage mutant ninja Pigs! (she's our little Ziggy Pig)



Emma's dreams came true when given the opportunity to dress as Batman / Batgirl. So here she is posing.







You don't often see a bored ninja.



Allie was a pig, or Ziggy Pig as we have lovingly called her at times.



Looks like the whole barnyard is coming along!



Here is the whole crew. So we went downtown to do the "Trick-or-Treats" that Provo City does. We walk along, and trick or treat at the stores along the way. (The Tattoo parlor was definitely the most colorful trick or treating event.)



Apparently this lady was pretty desperate for candy, look at her shoving kids out of the way. Poor Ethan (Scooby Doo) was nearly trampled! (Notice how everyone was kind of staring at her).


I miss those days of being a kid, dressing up, going door to door, hording all the hard liquor we could cram into our pillow cases.



No no Allie! No hard liquor..... you have to eat dinner first!



There were also some fun and games.





Batgirl away!



I am not sure if real ninjas kept their sai's in their belt like that. Bending over could be disastrous.





Deming kids and Smith kids, quite the crew. Just wait till the sugar sets in.



Back at home, preparing for a spooktacular night! (Note: all carved Jack-o-lanterns and the headless guy were last minute additions. We actually set up the baby monitor in the headless guys shirt, so it was cordless, and we could say things to trick-or-treaters, or play spooky music. It was kind of funny to see how many kids had their reserves about him. At first they think it is a person sitting there, but then they realize there is no head, nor a place for a head to exist. So they would gradually walk up along the far side of the walkway.)



Allie would attack the Candy bowl, and chew on the candy through the wrapper. She did it so much we didn't know what she had or hadn't chewed, so we just threw it all back in the bowl. I guess those were the "tricks".



Just another classy pose from Batgirl.


Our place at night time.




HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
