Halloween

We got to go to two different carnivals this year. One with our church group and one with the community. Caleb was the only one that chose to use the same costume twice. Mostly because it's the only one I own that fits him. I'm going to have to get some new ones next year. This is The crew at the church carnival.
The next week was the community carnival. We invited the missionaries out to help us run the booths. We ended up having plenty of help and they just got to hang out and visit with people. I think everyone had a good time.
The kids also went trick or treating, and with only 14 kids in town there was PLENTY of candy to go around. Sammie took an ice cream bucket and filled it to the top with the first 8 houses. I don't think of my kids as sheltered from most of life's experiences, but it came to my attention this weekend that my children had never tasted pop rocks candy. I wish I would have video taped the event. But you'll just have to take my word that it was pretty entertaining!!

Way cute! I can't believe you have deprived your children of the joy that is pop rocks! I am relieved to know that you have repented and they are now part of the pop rock crew!!! :) It's funny those things we forget about. Remember the whistle pops? I found those for my kids last summer...oh, the memories!!! Hey...if you think about it and have room, I have a few Halloween costumes you could take home with you next summer!!!
