Halloween Night

Jadyn LOVED her costume this year. She was all decked out as Glinda the Good Witch from "The Wizard of Oz". She even practiced singing the song,

"Come out, come out wherever you are
and meet the young lady who fell from a star
and Kansas she said is the name of the star..."
My favorite part of the song is the accent that she used to sing - like a British Glinda. Cracked me up! She was absolutely beautiful...

Jenna was The Witch (but not the really mean one) from the Wizard of Oz. She was so cute and really liked the broom that she got to carry. She walked around singing,

"I'm a mean old witch with a hat - he, he, he, he

And I ride on my broom with a cat (meow)...

My shoes are pointed and my chin is too

And you watch out or I can scare you, BOO!"


Introducing all of our Wizard of Oz stars - Glinda, the Witch, and the Lion! Granted, I couldn't get a decent photo of all three of them, but this was not so bad. Hyrum's costume was a combo - a slipper head and the costume bottom. Sadly, Hyrum would not keep the head on for anything, so we used the one that came with the costume for trick-or-treating. Aren't they adorable???



Just before heading out - This is the full crew including Mr. Scarcrow in the stroller as Hyrum's buddy.
Daddy came just time for some trunk-or-treating and to help me take the kids around. He got to listen to Jadyn and Jenna get really excited to show off their costumes and talk about "The Wizard of Oz" to everyone that gave them candy. It was fun to do all of our candy gathering on one street (thanks for the invite, Mom) and then be done before the kids were too tired.
Jared and I were a couple from "Alice and Wonderland". He was a handsome 3 of Clubs and I was the Queen of Hearts.
I'll have to post some pictures from the family party that we had with the McClures (later). At least I posted some basic Halloween photos. We ended to night on a good note... Happy Halloween!

Kendra ... I am so glad you found us. I have been thinking about you guys. Your kids are so cute. Jadyn and Jenna look so grown up know. Hyrum is such a handsome little man. He is going to be so spoiled with (3) mommies. We miss you guys. Nathan was wondering about Jared's business ventures. Are they still going well? Good to "see" you again... (I am going to look at Kyla's now too! thanks*)

Great job on the costumes. If I ever get to pick ours (Matt seems to really like to do it) I like both Alice in Wonderland and the Wizard of OZ.

Kendra!!!! I hope you don't mind that I googled you..... We're moving (sort of) and I was going through old boxes of Snow stuff and started wondering what you were up to. I'm so glad you have a blog; I LOVE blogs. :)
Your kids are beautiful. I'm so happy to see that you are doing so well. I hope you don't care if I keep peeking at your blog to keep in touch.
Love,
