Halloween!!!

Halloween was on October 30th this year and it's too bad because it was a really rainy day. We started the day with the Roe Family Halloween Party which was a lot of fun. Elaina loved having all the kids here. Then we went to the ward trunk or treat (which was outside) and got soaked to the bone. After that we decided it was just too rainy to go trick or treating. It's okay, though. Elaina and Austin are still young enough that the trunk or treat was sufficent. I was kind of disappointed, though. I like showing the kids off and Halloween is the only time that I can truely justify having a bunch of candy in our home. Adam and I have set the candy tithe at 90% this year and sadly I have about finished my share already.

Elaina chose her costume this year. We took her to the Halloween store and the only one she wanted was Tinkerbell. She looked just like Tinkerbell, she was so cute! And she loved wearing the "green pretty". Austin had two costumes. He was a skeleton during the day and then a giraffe for trick or treating. He was the cutest little giraffe/skeleton I'de ever seen.

Here's Austin as a skeleton with his skeleton Grandma and Grandpa.
Elaina and Rocky.
Ready for the trunk or treat.
Elaina was pretty excited about all the candy she got, especially this sucker!
