Trick or Treat






I love Halloween. It is a fun time of year where you can pretend to be anything. This year Tyler wanted to be something different. Something that no one else his age would be. He decided to be a spartan.
For Halloween this year I decided to let Tyler and his Cousin Kaitlyn have a Halloween Party. I thought it would be fun for them especially with our ward splitting recently. So Tyler and Kaitlyn and I sat down and planned out the party. We decided that it would be fun to make a monster, touching, operating table. We used a pumpkin for the head (of coarse we put a mask on it). The inside of the pumpkin was the brains. Then we cut squash to make the arms, carrots for the fingers, a balloon for the heart, spaghetti for the intestines, jello for the guts, and apples for the knees.
The next things that we decided to do was ghost bowling, mummy wrap, and musical chairs.
We were lucky enough to get some help setting everything up form Tyler's best friend Azlynn and her little sister Brielle, and then the party began. 20 kids showed up. It was quite the party! We had a ton of fun.
On Halloween we had fun also. We went "trunk or treating" and then we went "trick or treating". Of coarse we went to Grandma's for homemade soup! Then we went to Ty's other grandma and grandpa's house. By time we were ready to leave Tyler was exhausted. He fell asleep in the car on the way home.

We found the costume at a huge Halloween store. We had to find the peices and then put it together. He was cool!
