Halloween

Wow, I hadn't realized it had been over a month since our last post. Well here is a fun little post to hopefully make up for the lack of blogging.

Our Halloween day this year was a pretty full day. We had 2 different functions to attend and one party to host. We dressed Liam up as Elmo and he was super cute!

I loved having Liam still young so I could eat all his candy :)

Our first event for the day was at Liam's daycare. Tina had decorated her whole house for halloween and had a fun little party for all the kids. She had mini pumpkin coloring, cookie making, apple bobbing, costume wearing, haunted house fun! Liam was still pretty young to enjoy most of the games, but he still had lots of fun watching and laughing at all the older kids.

After that, we headed to our church for their candy carnival. There were lots of kids, and lots of little games to play. Liam had a little pumpkin candy bag (thanks auntie Shelley) to fill with candy. When he realized he had candy in it, he started to take it out and hand it out to everyone. It was pretty funny.

"Hey Guys, who wants Smarties??"

Then we headed home to get ready for our own party with our College and Career group. We had a Star Wars themed night, where everyone had to dress up as a star wars character and then we watched the 3 older movies. We soon realized that we might not be such "young" adults anymore. By 10:00 most of our group were either falling asleep or ready to leave. Our youth pastor Morgan and his wife Joelle were the only ones that made it through all 3 movies which ended up 2 AM. Josh and I were there too, but I think we both fell asleep for most of the 3rd movie :) Thank goodness for the time change :)
