Halloween

Halloween was really fun this year. It was cooler than last year which was nice and it was on a Sunday which made it different from other years. Brinley has a Halloween party at her school, Drew had a Halloween parade at his school, Danielle went to school as a die (sp?) or in other words one of a pair of dice. Not surprisingly,there is no Halloween parade at the middle school :)

As you can see, Brinley was clearly Belle or "Beauty and the Beast" as she likes to call it. For a while there, she was mixing up Sleeping Beauty and Beauty in the Beast but I think we have it straight now. Hey, these things are important!

Drew was some kind of ninja for school. He was not real excited this year, there was no superhero movie that recently came out and so nothing he wished to be. We ended up just getting him the next size up for the same costume he wore last year. We all attended the Ward Halloween Party Saturday night and Drew ended up switching to be a football player. (Which is what I suggested in the first place, but whatever!) The Ward party was super fun. Dean even painted his head to be the Last Airbender!  Thanks to the Shari and Mark!  They had all the added touches including a special guest entertainer :)

 

Sunday night, we went over to the Jackmans for dinner and Nertz, a super fun card game that the Jackmans introduced us to.  The dinner was yummy and the company was great.  The kids answered the door in their scary masks to intimidate the trick-or-treaters and we had war head contests.  We even had a pinata that Drew had bought with all his super u's from school last year. 

 Dean tried really hard to beat Staci at Nertz.  No Luck, that girl is the queen!  It was a fun night.
