Halloween

I don't think I like Halloween on a Monday.  It seemed like it went by so fast.  The girls got out of school at 4:00 and we had to hurry home and get them dressed in their costumes.  The schools don't let the kids wear costumes except Brynlie was able to put hers on for her class party and Rylie's class had pajama and crazy hair day.   So, we hurry to get ready to leave to go to my parents house.  I like the kids to experience real trick or treating by going house to house and my parents' neighborhood is the best place for that.  Our wards trunk or treat was at 7:00 so we had to hurry and eat dinner and take the kids around the block.  Jared and Mindi were there and the kids always love to play with Jared.  Easton had a blast going from door to door.  At the beginning we had to tell him to hurry because the other kids were running and leaving him behind.  Once he realized that he got candy at the doors he was off and running.  He kept telling himself  "Hurry, buddy, hurry."  Which is what we were saying to him at the beginning.  The kids were having so much fun that I felt bad that we had to leave.  We then went to our wards trunk or treat and the kids got a ton of candy.  Then we went to a scary decorated house that really goes all out for Halloween and they have people that hide and jump out and scare you.  Then we went to one of Porter's friends houses to visit for a few minutes.  Finally we got the kids home and in bed because they had school in the morning.  It was a really rushed Halloween but the kids had fun and I think we got to do everything that we wanted to do.
