We had a big party at grandma’s which was just wild and crazy. I mean we had musical chairs played to the soft sounds of Dokken.
We had ghouls, bunnies, princess, pirates, fairies,
We had with fairies dancing in the rain.
She really likes the rain.
Yeah, it was intense.
We then had a Trunk or Treat in our ward where I sat there staring at the wall due to really tight pants, a sweater in an already warm gym, exhaustion and lack of desire to be in public. But the kids had a blast! They got so much candy, it turned my baby into a….dun, dun, DUN…A FLESH EATING BABY!!
We finally got to the actual day (okay, Saturday, we have so many Mormons in Utah we can get away with Trick or Treating on Saturday instead of Sunday) and did some pumpkin carving. 
Which I guess put us in the mood to ‘carve’ a couple of chickens who are no longer laying. RIP Chicken and Gabriella. .jpg "imagejpeg952 (1)")
I can’t smell peanut butter or think of Wheat Thins without my gag reflex going on high alert but I could somehow watch ElRey gut a couple of chickens! I thought about making Hacky Sacs out of their lungs but I don’t think I could get anyone to play with them. My oldest was not happy about the development and at one point she screamed through her tears, “I HATE YOU!! YOU KILLED GABBY!!” Yeah, high point in our parenting. She was over it in 10 minutes so we’re good.
The night ended with some wet Trick or Treating and here’s that little fairy dancing in the rain again: 
Phew! Thank Heavens for November!
*Disclaimer: I realize it may look like my 3 year old is my favorite since I have more pictures of her. It’s only because the other girls don’t think about photo ops and take off before I can even say ‘Hang On!’. Therefore, my 3 year old will have to represent the children.
**Welcome to any new readers! I’m happy you’re here and I will do my bets to get over and check your babies blogs out!

See, I am right! Flesh eating babies!! Babies are scary.
I agree with you whole heartedly. Phew!
Cute little dragon babies!! You should have fattened those chickens up with all of our Halloween candy (so I stop fattening myself up)
The chickens are a crack-up! Sorry about the prenancy woozies... I still can't smell banana cream pie without gagging. And I think you're doing a great job with the 3-year-old. Usually by the time the third one comes around, you're tired of taking pictures, and the youngest one never gets pictures of herself alone. So she will thank you for that later. Cute costumes!
Wait, you don't like peanut butter?
I just want to squeeze those little dragons.
Halloween is such a marathon holiday- it's a whole SEASON rather than just a holiday anymore.
AND EEEEWWW! on the chickens. I can't have a relationship with my food before I eat it. I like my meat nice and packaged and bearing no resemblance to whatever it used to be.
oh my, that chicken pic is right up there with the headless rat pic. ick. and audrey reminds me of how i felt about us killing our pet rabbits for stew growing up. yeah, i got over it too.
I think all of my kids are adorable but Alex is just so photogenic, so more pictures of her.. Until Ryder that is, I mean who wouldn't want to take pictures of that chub?
Cute costumes and looks like a busy and full Halloween
You only get about 10 really good Halloweens out of a kid. Best enjoy 'em while you can.
Great times. Good costumes. With all those girls, it looked like more of an Easter party.
