A Bunch of Pictures of Halloween! (Orange and Black Costume Day)














We had an eventful week of spooky fun and I'm sure German still has no clue what Halloween is all about - oh well! We went to "Boo at the Zoo" last Saturday and got to see some of the animals dressed up and other animals ate pumpkins (but mostly because there were dead rats inside - gross!). We also went to our ward's carnival that night - German enjoyed playing the little games and winning the prizes. Then Monday night we carved pumpkins at a friends house for FHE. Of course we went trick-or- treating Wednesday night. I think it was more fun for Joshua and I to relive childhood memories than it was for German, especially because he didn't even know what you were supposed to do with the candy. By the end of the night I think he was figuring it out and kept asking for "more." The best news is that my husband is the most clever person at Centex Homes. He won first place (and a nice monetary reward) in the dress up contest. You can see in the pictures that he was "ThinKing outside of the box!" The best part was that we came up with the idea about 11:00 pm the night before and didn't have to pay a dime for the entire outfit! Notice that he's wearing my maternity pants and nylons and thanks to mom for her handy work on the shirt several years ago.

Aside from Halloween, we are all doing well and enjoying the cooler temperatures (only in the 80's) and beauties of an Arizona fall, which is more like spring! The baby is growing well and should be here in about six more weeks.
