...And Yes, Halloween Happened.

I just didn't take any pictures of it.

Bill got home late and tired so I took Will and Ivy trick-or-treating. (Faith boycotted Halloween this year - it was probably my fault.)

Will went as a Clone Trooper: we got the costume and mask for him as Savers and then he ended up chopping of the foot coverings on the costume. He is notorious at our house for taking something that looks decent and making it look terrible by cutting/tearing things off of it, and then liking it more.  Ivy was a ninja: she just wore all black with a light blue sash - it was pretty subtle. I raided Will's closet and wore his cub scout shirt (which is quite large on him) and his neckerchief and cub scout hat.

We found our new neighbors out trick-or treating and went with them. TJ is a year younger than Will and his older sister, Isabelle, is sixteen and a sweetheart, so we all had a good time. We were out for an hour and I'm pretty sure we'll never make it through all that candy.

I didn't even buy Halloween candy this year to give away. I just used Will and Ivy's candy from the ward Trunk-or-Treat. Faith said we had more people come than in years past, but no more than 25. Our candy didn't run out.

Now that's over with we can get on with the fun holidays: Thanksgiving and Christmas! Yeah!
