Spooktacular Fun

Boy do I love Halloween!! We had a great time. I loved watching my kids at school perform and showing off their costumes. I loved carving pumpkins and eating the seeds - mmmmmmm. And of course the excitement of getting dressed up and trick or treating (and watching my kids have a great time). Jensen was hilarious. He was Frankenstein this year and it was perfect for him. He walks all wobbly with his arms out in front! Chelsa really got into the trick or treating part and was trying so hard to keep up with her older brother and sister. Jensen had a bucket that was getting so full that kept making him fall down. Every time I tried to hold it for him he would scream. He had a death grip on that bucket. He would watch with amazement as the candy would fall into his bucket (no wonder he didn't want to give it up!). It started out being a great evening, and then it got pretty cold. So we didn't stay out to long.

On Friday night our stake had a Halloween Party at the church with so many fun things to do; bouncers, slides, a witch’s house, a haunted house and great treats. My kids had a blast. What a fun evening. So we had two days of celebrating Halloween!! What a fun holiday.

Great post! I love how kids learn early that Halloween is great - once they see the candy - there are sold! Your kids looked awesome and I love the jackolantern with the spider - so spooky!

What a great post Jenny and cute title too! I love Jensen as Frankenstein and could just picture him with his bucket of candy...ofcourse he wouldn't want to give that up! All of your children look great. Good job on Logan's skeleton. They are such cute Romeril children. Way to make Halloween so much fun for them!

All of your children look so cute, Jenny! Halloween is so much fun with them! You can hardly tell that it is Logan with his skeleton make-up on. Halarious about Jensen and his bucket, I am sure it seemed quite miraculous to him how he was receiving the candy - too cute! Cute cowboy hat on you!

Well, I guess I am a little slow looking at the blog. The kids all look fantastic and so do you Jenny. It really sounds like a good time was had by all. I sure wish I could have seen everyone and especially watched Jensen! Anyway, what a treat you all are to look at.

Your kids all look so great!
Jensen - what an awesome idea. He is the perfect Frankenstein! lol that he wouldn't give up his bucket. Berkley wouldn't hold onto hers! haha
Chelsa - always adorable. I wish I could have seen her running around in the little tutu.
Logan - great job on his make up. He looks awesome! Did he get lots of compliments at school?
Chloe - beautiful Hula girl. I noticed you waved her hair - perfect.
