Halloween Continued.....

Our Halloween festivities felt like they just kept going and going this year. I didn't realize how much I really do love Halloween. I was just as excited as the kids to figure out their costumes and decorate the house. We started out the festivities with a school trunk or treat and carnival. Their new school really does know how to throw a party. I'm always shocked at how much time and money they put into all activities.

Aliza had her face painted at the festival. She was thrilled with her kitty whiskers. We also attended a ward trunk or treat, and Aliza's nursery teacher was kind enough to invite us over for a little get together.

Because we didn't head home to visit family for Halloween like I had originally planned, we decided to have a little party for the girls instead. We had so much fun planning and buying fun supplies for the party.

We had pizza, breadsticks that looked like fingers w/blood dipping sauce, and cupcake eyeballs.

The mummy wrap was very popular this year considering they did it at each of the school parties too. Each group decided who they were going to wrap. It just so happened that they picked Abbie, Avery and Aliza to be mummified. I had to keep checking to make sure they could breath.

Avery the mummy.

Abbie the mummy.

It wouldn't be a Halloween party without the doughnut on a string game. Micah tied three at a time on a stick. It was so funny to watch each of them try to eat the doughnut.

It was taking them so long that we finally had to give a time limit and then decide between the three which was the winner.

Aliza was begging and begging to give it a try. We finally tied one for her and this is what she did. Smart girl :)

Bobbing for apples was fun, but wet. I didn't expect them to get as wet as they did. We had a great Halloween, and the girls are already talking about what they want to dress up as next year.
