Happy Halloween!

Well, tonight was trick or treating for Madison our rock star, Nate the cheerleader, Quinn the football player, and Jade the bunny.
Madison wanted to color her hair... and came up with her idea after thinking about "who in the world would color their hair blue?" Several people asked her if she was KISS. She finally asked me, "Who is KISS?!" Really that wasn't the orginal thought and the star was a last minute add-on... : )

It was a nice night for trick-or-treating... probably the nicest in a couple of years. Last year it was freezing and the year before it poured the whole time. Tonight it was cool and crisp but not bad at all. They both still had candy left over from last year but now they are all loaded up again. Basically most of the kids on our street and parents walked around together. Katie and Nathan (& Terry & Karla) came along too. Katie was a surgeon and Nathan was Harry Potter. The only picture I have of Katie is of her back! : ( I think I counted 12 kids. They were on the move most of the time so I really didn't get too many pictures this year. I loved trick or treating as a kid!


Madison took Jade from house to house. Jade seemed to really enjoy it (Madison did too).

Heather went as the Corpse Bride.


Nathan as Harry Potter

Trick or treating was from 5:30-7:30 and then we went over to B&P's for supper, to celebrate Pakka's birthday. Uncle Archie started a "tradition" (as it has become) with any cake. Once he asked Madison to smell her cake and so when she bent over to smell it, he pushed her face into the cake. So, Tony had to keep up the tradition with Jade tonight. He just tapped her head gently so her nose got frosting on it. She didn't know quite what to think of that! It was really cute though. Scroll down for a few more pictures from evening. Happy Birthday Pakka!
