Halloween Week

The week of Halloween has been a fun one.  We went to "trick-or-treat" street with Jennie and Paisley and then to "Boo at the Zoo."  Then Jennie invited us over for fajita salads.  Super delish!

Paisley & Sarah at Boo at the Zoo
Both events were really cute, but at trick or treat street right behind us was a boy wearing a skeleton mask.  Sarah kept turning around and freaking herself out.  She kept saying, "mom hug you me"  I tried for a little bit, but did not have very much patience for that.  Especially since I told her 100 times to stop turning around and looking at the skeleton.  Not sure she's quite old enough to appreciate all the Halloween fun.  For some reason, she DOES appreciate the candy from trick-or-treating though.
Playing Ghost-Ghost-Goblin

Painting her pumpkin.
The next day we had a Halloween party at pre-school.  They made frozen banana ghosts, painted pumpkins, played ghost-ghost-goblin (duck-duck-goose), and pin the face on the pumpkin.

On Halloween day we went to storytime at the library.  They had a little pumpkin walk/parade and Dad had the day off so he even got to come too.  Went into King's for their Halloween costume contest.  The employee in charge of taking the kids photos was....you guessed it ... wearing a skeleton mask.  I'm pretty sure Sarah will have nightmares of skeletons for the next little bit.

The Halloween walk at the library with Dad
We finished off the night attending trunk or treat at our ward.  By that time, I think Sarah wasn't as scared of all the costumes and masks.

Anyway, all in all it was a fun holiday and Sarah sure makes a cute cowgirl and Pocahantas.
