Halloween fun.

This year was a great Halloween. It was the first year Anaïs really understood the whole concept. They celebrated Halloween at school and it was so great to be there with them. I was in Anaïs' classroom party but unfortunately could not volunteer in Sam's classroom party as her teachers requested only four parent volunteers and they beat me to it.
Anaïs' classroom party was really cute, they read a Halloween story, decorated pumpkins and cookies and had a couple game stations. They also did a parade and visited all the classrooms.





Of course, the best part was when we visited the second graders, Sam's class. Here is Sam as a pirate very excited to see us. :)


Here is Sam and her very good friend Summer:


Anaïs just loves hanging out with the second graders...








Then in the evening we went down to Salt Lake to go trick or treating with the cousins in Jeff's mom's neighborhood.


Here is Anaïs about to go experience trick or treating for the first time, she got the idea pretty quickly and did a good job at saying "trick or treat".




















Fun times! Kind of glad Halloween is over though...

I am so behind on blogging and I must make a better effort. Sam's sakting competition. Alex-wow. She is marvelous. Look at those action pictures-is she doing jumps and everything? Wow. And she is just gorgeous. It is so awesome you get to go on the field trips with Sam and Anais' classes. I love all your pictures because the scenery is just breath taking. Anais is just the little shining star too huh? Her report card was amazing. That is great that she holds the pencil so well. Preston is just starting to get the hang of it. I loved the Halloween pictures. I am so happy Anais enjoyed trick or treating too this year. What a fun filled October you guys all had.
