A Happy Halloween, it was!!

Today has been quite the day, packed full of fun!!

Our morning started with my Awesome Dad coming and picking up Kahle, so that I could go into Delaney's class and help.  Jeff and to work and so Papa stepped in and Kahle could not have been happier!

Then we finished up a few last minute things and headed to school!

Delaney's class did their own parade around their playground and through the school.  She is one adorable Hello Kitty!
Photobucket
Delaney with Sunshine and Kaya, 2 great friends in her class!
Photobucket
We got to the school a little early to get a parking spot before the parade started.  I seriously love having a daughter.  She is so much fun and I adore her cute face!!
Photobucket
I was asked to make something fun off of pinterest for 2 of the boys' classes.  Cole picked this and Grant wanted them as well.  When it came down to it I had enough for Haden's class too, and so we sent them in (even though we weren't given an assignment).  

We watched the rest of the school in the costume parade!

Cole with some of his class!
Photobucket
Can I just say Cole's teacher is so adorable!  I love Ms. Poley!!
Photobucket
Grant cracked me up, he kept waving like he was a celebrity, lol!
Photobucket
Mrs. Young is amazing!  Such a fun teacher!!!
Photobucket
Haden with his friend Alijah during the parade!
Photobucket
Mr. Diggins is seriously the most perfect teacher for Haden!  Such a great guy!!

We got home and met up with Jeff and Kahle (Jeff picked up Kahle from my Dad after he got off work).  Got things ready again and went out trick or treating!
Photobucket
Delaney loved being the first to the door and the first to get candy and run back down.
Photobucket
Kahle loved being able to go up to the doors and walk with the kids by himself....we liked it to!
Photobucket
Grant was another one that liked to be first, it became a race between Grant and Delaney!
Photobucket
Filling up his bag!
Photobucket
Waiting at the curb for our kids....Jeff is such an awesome Dad.  I love that we are a team!
Photobucket
She looks frightened here, lol!  This girl has been counting down to this day for a while now.  She was so excited!
Photobucket
Leaving a family in our wards house :)
Photobucket
Cole and Kahle would compare bags and what they got after almost every house we went to, it was too cute!
Photobucket
Kahle was ALWAYS last.  He would be so interested in what the decorations were (or other random things) that he would take forever to get to the door and then forever to come back to Jeff and I.
Photobucket
The bags are getting heavier....
Photobucket
Checking out what he's got inside!
Photobucket
Near the end Kahle's bag became heavy and he just couldn't carry it.  So Jeff helped him and they carried it together :)

We loved seeing friends and visiting as we went around trick or treating!
Photobucket
Our 5 amazing kids done with their trick or treating!  They had a blast and so did Jeff and I watching them and just taking in the night with them!!

Happy Halloween!!!

A 'Carving' Good Time!!

Last night we carved the kids' pumpkins!
It was a LOT of fun.  I love seeing what ideas they come up with!

Photobucket
We have 'Legos'- Grant, a vampire - Cole, H.P.W (Harry Potter Wizard) - Haden, Delaney's pumpkin face and Kahle's!
Photobucket
Each kid drew their own and did a lot of the cutting and cleaning out as well.  It was fun to watch each of them!
