Halloween

We had a great time with Halloween this year! I decorated the outside of the house more than I've ever done! In the past I would just put up a couple of things in the window but this year I got motivated to do more. I put up spider webs, a picture of Frankenstein on the door(which was actually suposta be tied on the tree but our tree is too crooked), I hung a freaky monster head by the door and we had spooky music playing. I wanted to do so much more but I waited too long to buy decorations so a lot of stuff was gone. Even the black spider rings were gone so I had to use colored spider rings to put in my web...oooh scary!

Our scary decor!

A few days before Halloween, I got a package of these push in face pieces for the girls to decorate their own pumpkins, they had so much fun doing this! Then on Halloween we put them in the front of the house. I carved a pumpkin on Halloween but I forgot to take a picture.

Friday(the day before Halloween) was our ward's trunk or treat. Actually we aren't in that ward anymore because the ward split but we were still invited to go. Kayla and Samantha were cats, Kayla a tiger cat and Samantha a black cat.

The girls and their friend Lexi that came with us to the trunk or treat, goofing around and decided to do some funny poses! (look below)

The devil petting her pet cats!

I told them to pose like this! LOL

Jake and I dressed up as Clark Kent and Lois Lane. When we first arrived to the party, it was so cold so Jake left to get our jackets. So I'm walking around with the girls and no one knows what I'm dressed as! So when Jake came back, then people figured it out! I knew it would be hard for people to know who I was without him, but all they had to do was read my press pass around my neck! LOL

Halloween night! I made this tutu to go with Samantha's cat costume. She told me she would wear it but then when Halloween came she changed her mind and refused to wear it! I spent 5 whole dollars on making this tutu and its just went to waist! I thought about forcing her to wear it but I don't want her to hate me. So I said let me take a picture of you wearing it. She looks happy in this picture but she really had to force that smile!

Just before going out trick or treating!

Jake and I got a little crazy with the camera!

Don't we look so cool!

Look how strong he it!

My hero!

Jake doesn't usually like to dress up for Halloween. We talked about it about a month ago and he wasn't really thrilled about the idea and so I stopped talking about. Then the day before Halloween I was like I really want to dress up! So I thought it would be easy to find a few items for our costumes as CK and LL. Well I went to Good Will and found the white shirt and black blazer, looked for a Superman t-shirt and glasses but found nothing. Called around to all kinds of stores and nothing! So I was getting bummed out that this wasn't going to work but then Jake calls me from a differnt Good Will store after he gets off work and says he found a Superman shirt and glasses! Yay! So I found a picture of a Press pass for Lois Lane on the internet, printed it out and stuck a picture of myself on it! Used my friends lamanet machine and lanyard and my Lois Lane costume was complete!
