Halloween 2016

Usually I despise Halloween and I complain, complain, complain, but this year I finally embraced the inevitable and just sucked it up and joined in on the fun. Maybe one day I'll actually even like the holiday. Nate was a dabbing basketball player, Ty the grim reaper, McKenna a witch, and Hayley and I were both Minnie Mouse. She was pink Minnie and I was red Minnie. I was lucky enough to get Ryan to take the evening off so I thought making him dress up might push it. The girls and I went out to our friends for a Halloween dance in their community a couple of days before Halloween. We had so much fun, and I even got Tamara out on the dance floor.

The kids had their school parties in the afternoon of Halloween. It was Hayley's first one and she had tons of fun. I volunteered to help in McKenna's class for an hour for some minute to winute games. It was fun, but after the hour I was pretty tired and went home to have a nap (am I really that old).

All the Witch's

Halloween night the boys were so excited to go off on their own with friends. I gave them 2 hours. They had fun and got way too much candy. Ryan and I took the girls around the block in our neighborhood then I went home to hand out candy, and Ry and the girls went to the neighborhood were our house is and went a bit longer. Cody came and hung out with me while I handed out candy. We had a fun night. But now we have all this sugar. blah. Hayley and McKenna were bouncing off the walls last night. I still have a love/hate relationship with Halloween.

And then there is this cute little pumpkin...

We just love her. She especially loves Ryan, which is odd for a baby. I guess I see what she see's.

This girl has been working hard on her splits and she finally got her left one's.
