HALL-O-wEEEEn

Okay so this post is a TON of pics.. I edited it down alot believe it or not. But we took so many fun pics and had so many fun Halloween activities going on I didn't want to leave anything good out.
Okay so here we are at over at our friends house for a Halloween party. I was a fairy and Russ was Bret Michaels, the rocker and lead singer of Poison. haha I though he looked so awesome. Everyone could guess who he was so easily so I knew I had hit the mark right on.
Here are all the girls!

Here are all the guys.

This was the Friday right before Halloween I dressed up for work. (And ended up being the ONLY one in costume there) lol Oh well, I just love any excuse to dress up. My costume is "strawberry shortcake" the cute version ;)

This was on Saturday night. The weather was awful so we ended up going to the ward trunk-or-treat. Here is Ava all ready to go... dolly and all!

Because of the rain they moved the activities inside and had everyone going from classroom to classroom instead. I actually liked it better. Ava was so funny! She was hesitant to take the candy from people at first, especially any of the elderly people. lol

Just us.

Then that night we went out dancing with friends to another Halloween party. For this one I was a VS Angel.

The next day, Sunday-- the real Halloween I wanted to do something fun. So I talked to my sister-in-law Becky about planning a family Halloween Party. At first the idea was just to have the kids dress up but after my parents-in-law were on board they decided to go all out preparing yummy Halloween treats and dinner and everyone dressed up. It was such a fun party! I am so glad I suggested we all get together. Plus it was such a hit we are gonna make this a tradition to do every year!

Below are Ava and her cousin, Ethan. They are about a year and a half apart and area already becoming such cute little friends. He followed her around the whole party hugging on her and playing so cute. She just adores him and all the attention he gives her.

Here is me and my little witch. I thought Ava was so adorable in her little witch costume. She even let me do her make-up and put glitter and stick on gems. Aww my little cutie! Love her!

Our little Family.

Here she is with her witch broom I got to go with her costume. She loved "helping" by sweeping the floor.

I helped Ava cut out some sugar cookies.

Here are Ethan and Ava playing again so cute. I'm not sure what Ava is trying to tell him here. haha

Oh wow whatever he is telling her sounds interesting!haha Russ!

This one is by FAR one of my favs! Look how sweet they are! I love the look on Ava's face like she is holding back a big grin but being shy about it.

And finally decorating the cookies.

Mmm.. yummy and eating them.

Here is Ava with her grampa Child. Look how tired she is-- it was a long exciting day.

Well, that about sums up our Halloween this year! It was for sure one of the best so far! We had a blast and having Little Miss A only made it a million times better! Now we are getting so excited for Christmas! Ava has been such a good little girl that Santa has already agreed to spoil her this year ;) Hope you all had a great Halloween too!
