Halloween Tradition

Every year my mom has a Halloween party.   The kids get all dressed up, we eat dinner and carve pumpkins.  The kids LOVE it!  This year we also got to celebrate a birthday(Happy Birthday Josie) and have FHE (great job Codi).  It was a fun filled night.  NOTE: my sister and her family (Richard, Kari, Cody, Kyle, Zach & Brandon) live in Ohio.  We miss them at all of our parties!!!  We hope they come back to live closer to us some day.

Tori - 50's girl, Jake - Dad, Adri - Dirtbike Rider, Karen - Mom (my costume every year), Justus - Scary Scarecrow.  He made his own costume and thought it was the most fun ever.  He had to use a needle and thread AND a glue gun.  He is so very crafty!

Codi - Sis-in-law, Cinch - Lion (he's saying 'roar' of course), Gracie - Gymnastic Gold Medal Winner, Stran - Hunter, Brian - Brother.

Amber - Sis-in-law, Kacie - Countess Dracula (yes, I made that up), Kade - Pirate, Kevin - Brother, Cole - cutest Dragon ever.

Wendy - Sis-in-law, Mallory - Hippie, Josie - Black Cat, Brooke - Rock Star, Dalton - Pikachu, Shane - Brother, Tate - Bob the Builder (can you fix it?  I'm pretty sure he can).

My Mom, the proud grandma, with all of the scary Halloween kids.

Justus carving away!  He carved a scarecrow face.

Here's Adri carving.  She got a little scary with that knife!  She carved many things.  The shape of her hand and a dog were a couple of them.

Tori carved stars for eyes, a moon nose and a cloud mouth.

Lilly approved of all of the pumpkins, especially Adri's.
