Happy Halloween!


Halloween was a lot of fun this year with these little girls! (sorry the pictures are in backwards order..) Tyler was a witch and Kai was a monkey and the cutest monkey I have ever seen, every house we went to people had to comment how darn cute Kai was and she was so happy and exited to say trick-or-treat and then get candy! Then she would immediately say, "mommy, can we go to another house now?" And Tyler was a champ, she stayed running with the big kids and wanted to go to as many houses as possible. Before trick-or-treating we went to our neighbors for a halloween party that they have every year, we played games and had scary food to eat. I made "mummy pizza's" to take over, and they had other items there like bloody fingers (chicken trips), mummy toes, and lots of other scary things to eat. Then we started to walk through the neighborhood trick-or-treating with some friends, when Austin and our neighbor decided to go get our trailer and hook it up behind his Excursion. So we piled a lot of kids in the trailer and drove through the neighborhood trick-or-treating. They got so much candy and loved every minute of it. And thankfully, we had a dry evening! We had non-stop rain for 24 hours before the evening of halloween, then it stopped raining and was actually not very cold for the entire night.


This is the "candy sorting" party that we all love to do! We did this the morning after Halloween because we were too tired that night
The trailer filled with kids going trick-or-treating



Tyler doing good, filling her pillow case with candy!


She was making a drink out of witches brew!


My mummy pizza's we took to the party.


Aren't they so adorable! Or scary I guess I should say since Kai wanted to be a scary monkey and Tyler wanted to be a mean witch... what is with that?


Yes, I dressed as a witch too! But I was a nice witch.




This was the day before Halloween before Tyler went to preschool in their adorable skirts that Grosi made.

It's good to see the Gregory tradition of getting as much candy as you possibly can into a pillow case (not one of those dinky pumpkin buckets) is still alive and well. I love their costumes!!! Kai does look pretty darn adorable...but then again...when do your girls not look adorable?

Oh YES, the Gregory Family Tradition is STILL alive here! My neighbors and my own husband think I am totally nuts because I take my 2 year old and 5 year old trick-or-treating as long as we can and we get as much candy and go to as many houses as we possibly can, and OH YES, we use pillow cases! This is serious business here...no joking around when it comes to trick-or-treating!
