Halloween

Halloween is so much more fun when you have a kid old enough to get into it.  Paige loved dressing up this year.  For the ward party she dressed as Minnie Mouse: 


She loved wearing the dress and the ears (and wears them around the house frequently).   My costume was a totem pole (I was one face, Quinn was the other face):


 Jake dressed up like PSY and had Gangnam Style playing from his phone the whole time.



It took Paige a couple of trunks to figure out what trunk-or-treating was all about, but she soon got the hang of it and LOVED it.


And of course since she loved trunk-or-treating she was super excited to go trick-or-treating on Halloween. Holly and her kids came with us.

Paige and Heidi dressed up like two little ladybugs:


Peter the mouse:


Paige would walk up to a house and say "trick-or-treat!" before even knocking on the door.


After just a few houses the two little bugs got a bit worn out, so Jake carried both of them home.  During the walk home they just looked at each other and kept giggling.


For days Paige has been begging to go trick-or-treating again.  She keeps saying: "when it's dark Heidi will come over, we'll both be ladybugs, and we'll go trick-or-trick again."   She's been struggling to grasp the fact that we just go trick-or-treating once a year.

I love the totem pole costume! Only an anthropologist would think of that one:-)

So sweet. I love these pics. You have a passel of cuties over there (including Jake, of course!) And the totem pole idea was genius.
