Halloweeeen! Trunk or Treat.

The kids wanted to do a trunk or treat so bad this year.  J being the little miss organizer had plans to put one together on her own.  I was so happy to find out the branch already had one in the works.  We love living out of the country, but sometimes you have to cash in your "normal life" and traditions for other new things.  Well not this Halloween season.  Our wonderful branch had a little Halloween carnival and then a trunk or treat.  Filled with American candies and sugar cookies!

You may not recognize C.  He is the one with the skull face and blood running down it.  He was so excited to scare all the little kids with his gory mask!  It was pretty creepy.

J is so funny, she loves dressing up for these things, 
but doesn't like it documented. 
 She wasn't thrilled with  me taking a picture of her.
(sorry J, your makeup looks so good I had to post).
She put this zombie vampire costume together all buy herself.  
Even made the earrings out of some bracelets.
This is one of her good friends from the Branch.
One good thing about having three boys in a row is we have a ton of costumes he could pick from.
He had a different costume on each day for about 3 days. 
Batman, Superman and Power rangers one with muscles one without.
He wore the one with muscles trick or treating. He loved playing the games  his favorite game was the ring toss because he won a little plastic bat, that was highly coveted from his brother.
M played and played the ring toss until he finally won a bat.  We came home with about 10 pencil erasers from him trying to win a bat.  Don't get me wrong we really needed some pencil eraser's so it was a win win.

We got to the carnival and all the kids decided they didn't want to wear their masks. 
That is me in the background holding different parts of people's costume's they didn't want to wear.

R fulfilling his duties as a member of the Elder's Quorum.  
They were in charge of the fish pond.
M doing so pumpkin bowling. 
Nice form huh!  Yeah he gets is from his mom.
M was a Skylander.  He broke his mask within the first 2 minutes of wearing it,
 I was stuck holding that too.
