Happy Halloween

I do realize it is Thanksgiving week which is why I decided I have to get this updated this weekend. The boys had a blast Halloween Week. They went as an Army Soldier and a Soldier Pilot. I could only find one costume of each so luckily they were both happy.They had a short parade around the block during school and then back to the school for some candy.
We went to the fall festival at our church, SEBC and the boys loved it. They loved the games but also all the candy they got. I tried to teach them to take the candy they could eat but they kept going for the jaw breakers, gum etc. Colby even picked a piece of peppermint over all the M&Ms, snickers, Reese's, Twix etc. I will definitely have to train him on picking the "GOOD" candy.
Here are my soldiers doing a lil fishing.
They were not at all happy about having to stop for a picture and refused to sit beside each other, at least they are kind of looking at the camera. And now what they had been waiting for...actually trick or treating. They could not wait to knock on doors and get candy. We practiced and practiced and they had a blast. We actually trick or treated down in West Jordan because we live on a mountain that is not easy to pull a wagon without Daddy. Luckily Mr. Dante volunteered to pull them around his neighborhood while Mommy and Mrs. Lynda watched.
Headed out to the first house....here we go! "Go fast Mr. Dante"
The first house and the first doorbell. You might notice Colby in the back, he let Austin for first every time.
"Look Mommy, I got Candy"...this is what Colby would say at each door, then he would say, "lets go try another door".

Back to Mrs. Lynda's with all our candy and they were having a hard time picking what to eat. We did let them try the pop rocks and their reaction was quite funny.All in all we had a nice Halloween week and we are still eating the Halloween candy. We missed Daddy very much and look forward to him pulling the wagon next year.
