Happy Halloween

The kids had a blast this year with Halloween. Shad was relieved that Brooklyn decided to be something other than a princess this year. She chose to be an angel instead. Chandler didn't really have a choice and we dressed him in a Batman costume. Chandler didn't last too long. He tried to climb out of the stroller before Shad got to him and figured out that gravity hurts sometimes as he bonked his head on the sidewalk. That ended his night. He went back to Grandma's house and helped her hand out the candy to all the other kids and really enjoyed doing that. Shad stayed out with Brooklyn for quite a while. She had so much candy in her pumpkin that Shad had to carry a bunch for her because it was too heavy. They were sure fun to watch.By the look on her face I think she is pretty excited to get started. Yes that is a HUGE Candy bar!
We went to a Murder Mystery Dinner (Thank you Mike and Alisa!) and Shad was dressed as John Wayne and I was Gloria Swenson (whoever she is). It was fun to go and be among friends without the kids. John Wayne was a suspect but in the end it was Jimmie Hendrix that was convicted of the murder.

Hey Shad-
Your family is so cute. It is good to see what you have been up to. My sister said you live in Eagle Mountain. My husband's sister lives out there. Wonder if you know them, Jami and Courtney Christiansen.

With a little pee shooter like that how could you commit a murder?
