Happy Halloween!!

We had a great Halloween, but it was a really busy weekend. We carved pumpkins with my family on Wednesday. It was great to get together! I must say it wasn't quite the same this year. We missed Shawn's family they have hosted the Halloween carving party for...well I don't know how long? Seems like forever!! So we really missed them. Apri was totally disgusted by the pumpkin guts! Kayla and Megan would pretend to put some on her and she would freak out! The pumpkins turned out pretty good if you ask me. On Friday Apri and I were Trick-or-Treating all day long. We went with our ward play group all morning then after quick nap we rushed to the ward trunk-or-treat. Then when Wayne got home we continued trick-or-treating all night. I just loved watching her reaction when she received a sucker. Her whole face would light up and she would immediately try to rip the wrapper off. I can't belive she didn't get sick she ate so much candy! It was fun but exhausting...I couldn't believe how tiered I was when we got home. Now we have more candy than we can eat! The thought of candy makes me sick right now...even chocolate!! Then on Saturday we hosted a party at our house with just a few friends. We had a murder mystery dinner party. It was so much fun!! I am so mad that I forgot to take pictures that night. All and all we had a spooktacular Halloween!!

What a fun day for you guys! I was getting tired just reading about it. I wish life was simple enough for us Adults that a sucker could make our day. How do we get back to that? We missed going to the Hallowen carving party. Why was there no "U"?? Apri was darling in her costume.

Back before forever the pumpkin carving was at my house. I should scan some of the pictures and post them. You were about 9 probably!
Apri looked so cute in her flower costume. I can't believe you guys went trick-or-treating three times. That is awesome...and tiring.

Wow I am tired at the thought of all that trick-or-treating! I am sure Apri loved it though. And her costume is really cute!

I tried to leave a comment earlier but it didn't take. So, I hope I'm not leaving a double. It sounds like you had a blast. Apri looked so cute in her flower costume. I really enjoyed the video!
