Is that the saddest little jack-o-lantern or what? :)
Friday Jeff had the day off for Nevada Day. We took the kids to lunch at Sammy's Woodfire Pizza. The whole shopping complex there was doing "safe trick-or-treating" for the afternoon, so we joined in the fun (even without the kids' costumes).
That night we went to our ward trunk-or-treat, which was a lot of fun. It's such an easy way to do it for our young kids.
Jackson was a bat. Not the cutest costume, but definitely worth the $5 we spent on it! :)
Lexi was a cheerleader. She just thought she was part of High School Musical!
Jackson's favorite part was the popcorn
After the trunk or treat we met a few other families at the Jenson's and hung out. The kids were all lining up on the sidewalk to take a picture together, but Jackson just plopped down in the middle of the driveway...and I just noticed that he is still holding his popcorn! One more funny story. My mom's birthday is on Halloween. We called her earlier in the day, and I had asked Lexi to sing "Happy Birthday To You" with Jeff and I. Well, my moms answering machine picked up and we sang, but Lexi barked the whole song like a dog (yep, she's still in act-like-a-dog phase). After we were done I scolded Lexi for barking the song and told her it made me sad that she wouldn't just sing for Nana. Well, then I looked at my phone, and it was still on, and the whole scolding was left on the message! BUSTED!! I just had to laugh...and I'm sure my mom did, too!

That was fun!! Thanks again for picking up Layne's costume for me - gotta love the $5 special! Funny about Lexi and the answering machine! So classic! Can't wait to hear what your mom thought!
judy!!! hi!
It's been forever! About 3 years exactly, since I came through Vegas on my way to NYC. I can't believe I've been here for 3 years! I was reading someone's blog and somehow came across yours...it's fun to see what you've been up to! You look great as always! We'll have to catch up more soon!

Jude, I can't believe how big Jackson is! How can it be? I actually love his bat costume...and $5--you cannot beat that! Wish we could be around to learn your Halloween songs and hear your Halloween stories. Maybe one day...
That is funny that Lexi thinks she is a dog. Haley thinks she is a cat and tries to say the blessing on the food in a "cat voice". She always calls me "Meow-meow" instead of ma ma or mom. Such cute pictures of your kids. They are getting so big and are sooo cute!
The kids are darling. I wish we were closer so we could have seen them in their costumes, but I'm glad we got to see pictures of them.
