Halloweekend

- November 01, 2010

This weekend flew by. Friday evening we babysat for some good friends and enjoyed our last evening with Ella. Saturday morning we made a dessert and ran to the store for some chips for our annual Fall Fellowship at church. We were there most of the afternoon and the weather was great. John even played football! When that was done, a few of the kids and I went to Kearney for a couple hours. We visited some favorite thrift stores, drove by our old house, and played at our old favorite park. Josh was excited that a thrift store we went to had $1 costumes. So he got a Wolverine costume for Halloween. He originally was going to be Spiderman again or a different power ranger than last year. We have about 10 or 12 costumes in the boys room that we got on clearance over the years for dress up and he didn't want me to buy another one for just one night (he is very sweet). Anyway, he was so excited to find that one. Halloween morning we went to church, Sam's club, ate lunch, took a car to the airport for Sue and Gary, and then got our costumes on. Chipolte changed their Halloween special and required you dress as a processed food instead of a burrito (foil attire), which really bummed John. He still ate there at regular price while the rest of us enjoyed .50 corn dogs at Sonic. Then we met up with the grandparents and went trick or treating in the Coves. There was a hayride going through the subdivision, which we enjoyed near the end of our trip. They also had fire pits near our lake where we roasted smores. It was chilly, but a lot of fun. Here are a few pics from the evening...
