Haaaaallll-llloooo-weeeeen!!

This is not one of my favorite holidays, in fact, it is my LEAST favorite. I will be glad when everyone is big enough that we don't have to bother with it anymore. .... let's see, hmmm I guess I have a few more years. It was a CRAZY day! Our ward youth did baptisms for the dead (Stacy said "what an appropriate thing to do on a day like this! ha, ha, so funny!) so the girls left about 4:00 with Spencer as one of the drivers and workers at the temple and Brad left at 5:00. Rachel went to a friend's neighborhood to a block party and then to trick or treat so that just left Jenna and me! We sat down to watch a movie to kill time before candy time.

Jenna was a cute priate and her friend Morgan was a pumpkin fairy thing.

Just as it was starting to get dark, we set out the pumpkins and lit them all and then off she went with the neighbors while I stayed to pass out candy. Shannon got home around 7:o0 or so. Michelle got home with Spencer around 7:30 and Brad returned around 8:00 or something like that. Shannon went off to be with her friends, as did Michelle and Brad too. Hmmm, do I feel unpopular? Naaaaa!! Rachel came back around 8:30 and she and Jenna continued to play with the neighbor kids till around 9:00. Shannon came home with some of her friends around 10:00 and they started a movie. Brad showed up with a couple of his buddies about 10:30

they grabbed some costumes and left again.

Shannon's friends left about 11:00 just as Michelle was coming home. Brad returned at midnight! Holy Cow! Teenagers!!!!! They don't need any sleep! I usually take the late shift (waiting for the kids to come home) and Spencer takes the early shift (getting up with the early bird little girls). Sooooo Silly

The candy haul!!

Rachel had already taken her costume off. See her costume below in previous post.
