Halloween

We had a reallygood time at halloween, doing all the traditional stuff. Ryan spent most of the summer tending to his 1 acre pumpkin patch. He wasnt as successful as he hoped but we did have over 100 pumpkins. Neighbors and family enjoyed choosing their favorites.
One of our favorite parts of Halloween was the ward trunk or treat and chili cookoff. We ate a lot of yummy chili and there were great costumes. Ryan was a box of 4 crayons containing each of the color crayons that the boys were dresssed as and I was "The RULER". It was a ton of fun.

Its hard to tell but it had faces painted in the windows, a stem and leaves on top and we made a giant face on the back, it was fun and of course it won best car at the trunk or treat.Blue is wearing the red power ranger suit and 1st Choice Halloween PartyCameron the magician is trying to blow a bubble in a contest. Unfortunately for him he can't blow a bubble and therefore did not win the contest. But he sure tried!Also competing in the donut eating contest. Not so good at that either but it was the only way to get a donut. After he just took it off the string and enjoyed the rest.A lot of fun at Daddy's work party and lots of sugar makes tired Redfords!
