Halloween

October has been a busy month around here.


We carved pumpkins and Markus thought it was pretty disgusting at first then he thought dad was pretty funny when he was going to eat it. Lanie had nothing to do with the process until it was done and cleaned up.

YUM! Yum!



The gooy mess!


Part of the Halloween Festivities this year was Markus' preschool party. Lanie and I got to tag along. He got a lot of candy and prizes but good ol Teacher Greg made all the kids eat veggies before they had any sugar! Markus surprised me and ate some celery.





Halloween night was a lot of fun. Markus was so excited. Weeks before Halloween was upon us we tried to find a costume he wanted. I talked him into not being Thomas the train for the 3rd straight year. He decided he wanted to be something scary. He decided on a dragon.
Halloween night the kids had a blast. Lanie thought it was great knocking on the doors and getting candy! Markus thought it was hillarious to scare the people that answered the doors. But behind one door was a 90 year old lady that about had a heart attack. We put a stop to that after that. We went trick or treating in our neighborhood and then hit the neighboorhood right next to ours where supposedly they give out king sized candy bars. We thought we would just hit some of the people in our ward and then go home. Little did we know it was like the sidewalks of New York City. I've never seen so many people. We had to wait in line to get to some doors. At the end of the night Lanie was out like a light and Markus was wide-eyed looking at the load of candy he got!
