Halloween

Some of the neighbors wanted to do a potluck dinner on Halloween to celebrate and get the kids together so they could go trick-or-treating together.  So I made some clam chowder and corn bread to share.  It was a great turn out and we had a lot of fun sitting around with our friends.  Ethan stayed for a while and then decided to go home to give candy to the trick-or-treaters that came to our door.  Courtney was all about the party.  She stayed for a long time playing and then grabbed Cameron and they went out to get candy.

We had a section of our ward that is older retired people.  One woman mentioned to me that they were afraid no one would trick-or-treat to their subdivision because they didn't know many people so I made sure to pass the info around that there would be great treats in Desert Rose subdivision.  Courtney and Cameron made their way there first and got a lot of loot!

I went home and we watched our annual tradition of "Ghostbusters" while answering the door.  I took over for Ethan after a while because he was getting tired of getting up and down with his crutches.  There were some cute costumes and some creepy ones.

Courtney came home with a ton of candy and started separating it for the Halloween Fairy and for her.  I couldn't believe how much she got!  I love when Halloween is on a Saturday.

Here is her 80's rocker look.  Everything was from her closet. ;)
