Halloween '09

This year we saw a change in our halloween routine. The girls are starting to get older now and we decided to have a little party for them and their friends. It was fun to decorate and both girls made signs for the two events.

We started our evening out by sneaking over the the grandparent's house to surprise them and show them the costumes. We weren't sure if we could see them with all that we had planned on doing but we just couldn't not go. They were both very excited to see us and Grandma loved seeing the costumes she made.

Afterwards we headed back into Mill Creek to meet up with all our friends to do a little Trunk-or-Treating. The weather wasn't the greatest so we had to wonder around in the rain but no one seemed to mind. It was fun to see all the different decorated trunks and wade through a sea of people.

We then packed into the van and headed to our house where the girls took their turn out the photo booth, shooting off their Meno's Fountains and bowling at the Pumpkin Bowling Alley.

Thanks for all who helped make their evening fun.
