HALLOWEEN TIME!!!

















Look at those "cat eye" glasses- see ya at the sock hop Lindsey!





Ready-okay- CUTEST CHEERLEADER award!




Oh- she is soooooooo mean looking! Don't mess with this pirate!










Our "awesome" Frankenstein cake--




The awesome Jack-O-Lantern Dave and the girls carved while Matt and I were boogie-ing.




The movie party on the tramp Thursday night- yea! It's the weekend!


















Halloween started a couple days early for us this week. Wednesday was the tri-ward dance for our YM/YW. Matt looked "smokin hot" as a 50s "greaser". The dance was fun and even his dear old mom busted a move or two and Matt was kind enough to cheer for me instead of laugh at me! :) ha ha.

Thursday was the school carnival and party since we didn't have school on Friday! Katie was a cheerleader and looked so cute!(go-fight-win!) Ellie was a pirate- "arghh". They had a lot of fun at their class parties. Lindsey joined us there at the school when she got home from Middle School and she was able to visit some of her old teachers. She said that the elementary school seemed so small to her now! :) Thursday night Lindsey invited a couple of friends over and they watched a movie outside on the trampoline piled in blankets-FUN!!!
Then Friday we had a fun day~yea~no school!! We ran a bunch of errands and then spent the rest of the day making our chili for the ward party and our cake for the Cake decorating contest and lots of cupcakes for the cake walk. The trunk or treat was a lot of fun. Lindsey was a 50s girl and she said it was her favorite costume she has ever had (probably because she looked so stinkin cute in it!!) HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

You gals do look splendid... I must say. I love the braids on Ellie and the black tooth. Kate the Great does make a very cute cheerleader... do you want to try out in the future and continue the legacy of Aunt Heidi or was it just fun for a day ?!?! Linds you do look way cute in your costume...the glasses totally make the outfit. Oh and the scarf too - nice touch. Matt - the ladies must have been dyin' at the dance. Sorry for such a long comment but I have to say that the cake is so adorable - my boys would love to make that - maybe next year. Want to come over and do it with them?!? By the way - Lindsay you know you are going to have to start babysitting for us once you turn 12 and feel up to it. You can always bring a sister with you for fun!!! Wow - you are all getting so old - I guess that means I am old too. P.S. That cheer outfit hasn't been worn since June 1992...don't tell me you weren't even born then Katie - I already know that :) !!
