Afterwards we took the kids to the Halloween event at the Gallivan center - this kick started their 'candy collecting' about a week early :)
That afternoon we met our good friends, the wickhams, at the pumpkin walk in Logan - it was so cute! We had a great time & enjoyed dinner together afterward, it was good to catch up!
On the monday before Halloween we painted & carved our pumpkins!
Halloween day we were able to go help at the Halloween party at Laexins school. It was fun to be in this tiny little school house for a holiday celebration - everything is so laid back there, both LeGrand and I commented that it was the first time we had every been at a school that not only didn't care but actually 'allowed' the kids to wear masks to school. They did a little Halloween parade through the school, it was cute. You can see that Laex took his costume very seriously, I never once told him to 'pose' but he was in full 'character' for every picture I took :)
Halloween evening we were invited to have soup with some friends then the guys took all the kids out trick-or-treating, they made a haul! LeGrand always goes through their candy when they get home and throws away all the stuff we know we wont eat. This year there was maybe a small handful of candy that went in the trash, everyone gave out really good treats :)
