Halloween

I am so behind on everything, but thought I would slap up some pictures of the kids from Halloween. The day was crazy. My plan was to have Caden be a magician, and Sydney be a bunny coming out of a hat. Nancy had made the costumes for Noah and Maya when they were younger so I was going to use them. Caden had other plans...he wanted to be Superman. It still worked out. I had to go to a costume store to find some bunny ears for Sydney. Well...the ears ended up being the same cost as a full suit. So I went with the new costume. She was the cutest bunny ever! I was supposed to make chili to bring to our ward carnival, and by the time I got that all done, and got the kids in the car...we got to it right before it was supposed to end. I was frustrated because it took me so long! The kids were still able to enjoy themselves for a little bit, and we got a bite to eat before we went trick or treating. We got back home around 6:30 pm. I took the kids trick or treating while Shawn passed out candy. We only went down one street and a little around the corner when Caden declared that he was done! It was only a little after 7 pm! Shawn came and picked us up, and we went to do our "rounds" to the grandparents. Our first stop was my parents ward Trunk-or-Treat. Within minutes on the road I looked back to find Caden fast alseep! He was just exhausted. We got to my parents event, and woke up Caden. After only going to a few cars (and he was in the stroller) he began to cover his bucket, and said that he didn't want anymore...he wanted to go home! I was astonished! He turned down candy! Needless to say he was plain tired. Unfortunately we weren't able to go by Nana & Grandpa's (Shawn's mom). I felt bad...but didn't have much of a choice. Hopefully he will have more energy next year!

BTW -- No, I haven't opened the envelope yet. Sorry!
