Happy Halloween!


Hi everyone! I hope you all had a wonderful Halloween! We did! Aaron got to wear his costume for four different events and Nathan for 3. First of all, we went to a pumpkin walk in downtown Bryan last Saturday where we viewed all the entries for a pumpkin decorating contest. The theme this year was Dr. Suess so there was a lot of different and interesting pumpkins. A lot of the schools participate so I think we will try to have Aaron enter a pumpkin in next year's contest.Then on Wednesday night we had our ward Halloween carnival and trunk-or-treat. Aaron and I made decorations and decorated the trunk of our newly bought 2006 Dodge Grand Caravan. (We have been thinking that we probably needed a minivan with the new little one coming and we found a great deal and bought it on Monday.) The boys had a blast at the ward party and our trunk turned out great!

Thursday morning Aaron dressed up again for his preschool Halloween party at the park. Nathan and I ended up staying so I guess we should have put his costume on too, but he was okay with wearing a Winnie the Pooh sweatshirt.
Then of course on Friday we dressed up again to go trick or treating in our neighborhood and transferred our trunk decorations to our doorstep. We didn't have much luck finding houses giving out candy, but that is okay. We all had a lot of fun anyways and we got plenty of candy at our ward party.



I don't want to take up any more space on here right now so check out our family blog at http://beccamikey2002.blogspot.com/ to see more about our month. It has some pictures from Nathan's birthday and our trip down to Houston that weekend to visit my cousin Adam and his family. Poor Adam had to work, but we were able to go with his wife and daughter.
We love you all!
Love,
Becca, Mikey, Aaron, and Nathan
