The Loot

After Trick or Treating at Blizzard the kids came home and seperated the candy. They love this part as much as all the rest. Kallie trades what she can't have and then they like to seperate them into each kind. Jenna picked tons of peanut butter cups and Corbin picked tons of skittles. I take 2/3 of the candy and put it in a bag and put it away where it can't be reached easily. We'll pull that out a few months down the road.

Trick or Treating

We went Trick or Treating at Blizzard. The kids love to go to Byron's work. There are 4 buildings that the kids can go through. One decorates a little scary but they were really brave this year. They get sooo much candy from Blizzard. Their bags were so heavy that they had Byron carry them for awhile. We also had a Trunk or Treat with our ward. I was really sick but Byron helped me make a pot of chili for the party. We were co-winners of the chili cook off.

Gingerbread Haunted House

We put together a gingerbread haunted house. The kids loved it but wished they could have eaten more of the candy. We had some trouble getting the roof to stay on. We held it in place, we added more frosting, we even tried to prop up the side roof panels with knives and supports. In the end the roof just fell off, but we sure had fun doing it. Kallie was pretty sly at sneaking the candy and frosting off through the next week. Jenna and Corbin however couldn't do it with out getting black frosting leftovers on their lips.

Fun Times

Jenna lost her first tooth. She was sooo excited when it was first loose. She has been asking when it would be her turn to lose a tooth for months now.
Jenna loves to help out with little ones. When ever we are with her cousin Griffin she wants to help him. He is really starting to like her. They are so cute together.
Corbin has asked to wear his costume almost every day for weeks now. He was sad and went to cry on the bed, I found him a few minutes later asleep. I guess even Batman needs a nap.
