HALLOWEEN... and our halloween parties!

This year we went all out for Halloween! Our halloween started off with decorating the unfinished part of our basement. Once it was as spooky as the kids could take it, it was time to PAR-TAY!
First Chadd had a birthday/halloween party on Friday the 30th. 11 kids from school and church come over and played games. I have to say I was glad we only scheduled that for 1 hour.
On the night of Halloween 7 families and the missionaries from the branch came over. We had 14 kids here and Chadd was the oldest. It was so much fun!

We played games and ate tons of great finger foods. Our favorite game was digging worms out of whip cream with our mouths. The missionaries were great sports!


The party started at 6:00 and our last guest left about 10:00. I think we may have started a really fun tradition.

This year the Chadd dressed up as the Swine Flu, Tay was Hannah Montana, and Kenzie was Cinderella. When the night was over I realized that I didn't have a picture of Tay in her costume:( Maybe next year!
