Halloween

We had Trunk-or-Treat at our ward building the night before Halloween.  I even dressed up for the fun. (Hey, that graduation gown has gone unused for far too long, and it was definitely the easiest costume to cover the growing belly!)  We had a lot of fun.  Tink was a witch, of course.  Minnie went as Belle again this year.  Bucko was a bow hunter, and Goofy was a monkey.  Fits all their personalities perfectly.  (Not that Tink is a witch--she just loves the twist in Wicked, that the wicked witch is really good.)
The kids liked doing the cupcake walk and the beanbag toss the most.  One fun part was a guy dressed up as Captain Jack Sparrow. He played the part up perfectly and stayed in character the whole night.  You can see his "ship" in the bottom right picture.  Tink walked in front of him when I took the picture, so you can only see his hat.
I decided not to hand out candy from our trunk this year with PC gone.  I needed to be with the kids and walk around with them, so that is what we did.  Bucko got separated from us for a few minutes and that was scary for both of us.  I know it's just at church, but you never know what can happen and there were a lot of people there.  It was a good night, though. They had tons of candy, so we only went to a few neighbors' houses the next night for trick-or-treating.  They still have so much candy. We will probably be able to use it for gingerbread houses at Christmas.
