Our Halloween celebrations actually started a week prior at our annual Fischbeck Halloween Party errr Carnival. We had face painting, ghost making, pumpkin bowling, a costume parade, daddy mummies, spook burgers and mummy dogs---with witches brew, scary touch and feel, donuts on a string, and we even decorated brownies into halloween characters--pumpkins, ghosts, spiders and frankenstein---IT WAS THE EVENT OF THE YEAR!

Aunt Jill making her witches brew...
This was one of my favorite shots of the night. All of the daddies sat in chairs in our yard and we were given two rolls of toilet paper and then told to go to town. When we were all done, we gathered up all the little kids (like 2 and under) and made them figure out where their daddy was. As soon as Court spoke Waverly's name she knew he was the one in the middle standing up!
Then came Friday and the parties at school. I was crazy enough to volunteer to help at both the 2nd grade AND the kindergarten celebration, so I started in one hallway at noon and then raced around the corner at 1:30 for the next!
Delainee made a spider hat, a pumpkin donut, a bat, and then got to decorate her pumpkin with stickers.

Laetner did pumpkin bowling, face painting, spider pops, cake walk and a spider hat of his own...
We were not able to make our ward trunk or treat, cuz grandpa fischbeck had his retirement party on Friday night, but we finally made it to the 31st! I have to say that it was slightly disappointing. We met up with our usual crew for pizza before heading out for a night on the town, but it seemed like very few trick or treaters were out and about, and it seemed like even less houses were giving out candy this year. Not to mention that we weren't even done with ONE street when Laetner announced he was DONE! But the kids had fun, and after her initial reservations, Delainee was glad to have conceded into being Luigi in order to help complete our Super Mario Brothers Theme. EVERY house would always exclaim, "Hey it's Mario and Luigi!" to which Laetner would always reply "How they know my costume?" He must seriously think he is the only person on the planet that plays Nintendo.
Here is our Nintendo crew: Luigi, Mario, and this is a stretch but we even have a purple Yoshi
Hope everyone had a Happy Halloween!
