Happy Halloween

I can't believe how fast time goes. My days just seems to fly by, there never seems to be enough time for everything, including my 'blogging'...so here goes my Halloween post. Better late then never, right?
The boys had a fun Halloween! We started the night off by going to a trunk or treat at my parents ward. Here is a picture of the 3 boys, the best one I got. I think next year we are just going to stay at our house. It was a little crazy, but luckily we had my parents there to help out.
Here was my little "roo", courtesy of Grandma Terol. Poor Brody, he was so hot under all that fur so we let him take it off after a while.

Here is my sweet Brinks....and cute hubby.

When the trunk or treat was over, we headed home & the boys trick-or-treated our neighborhood. We had a ton of trick or treaters!
After a couple days of endless sugar, wired kids, and a mom who couldn't keep her hands out of the sugary stash(that would be me) the boys decided to leave their candy outside for the Halloween witch. She came while they were sleeping, took their candy & brought them the game Twister. I owe this whole idea to my good friend Summer, thanks girl!! Now bring on the turkey, gobble, gobble!

Oh, how cute! I love all the costumes. I bet your older boys were loving it! I know what you mean about it being hot! Dax's little suit was roasting him, so he was out of his not long after.
Brinkley is getting so big! I know what you mean about the candy. I can't have it around, that's for sure. I love the witch idea too.

Your kids looked so cute all dressed up. I loved Brody's costume. Okay and the whole Halloween Witch idea is super creative and such a great way to get rid of all that sugar. I will definately keep that in mind for the years to come.

Love the Roo costume! Ya, haven't posted Halloween pics yet due to my dinosoar computer so...what ya gonna do? Your so nice to have the Halloween Witch take the candy and leave a toy. I just straight up dumped it in the garbage. After the $ we've forked out for dental bills, too bad so sad! Now we can look forward to holiday yum yums!

How fun! I'm glad to see that some of the old shows from my childhood haven't completely gone out of style like Winnie the Pooh and Transformers. :)

Hey! On Saturday we were at Kadence's soccer game and my mom says, "That kid looks like a Stauffer" So I look and recognize your little Caleb (from blog of course) as one of the kids on the team we were playing!" I said, "Hey, thats Katie's little boy" CRAZY that she would just see him and not know he was yours and know he went with your family. I didnt see you there but I recognized your hubby and other boys (thanks to your blog) My mom said to tell you Caleb FOR SURE takes after your family.
