Our First Trunk or Treat!

This year we got to participate in our first ever trunk or treat with our ward. Our previous wards have always had great Halloween parties, they have just never been a trunk or treat... so we were excited to participate in our first.

Emma chose to be Silvermist this year for Halloween.  Silvermist is one of Tinkerbell's side kicks in the Tinkerbell movies.  She has been asking since last Halloween to be Silvermist and she did not change her mind for 365 days.  Grant, as the unfortunate second child got stuck with Emma's old costume from 3 years ago.

We decorated the car like a monster (forgot to get a pic!) and made some homemade chili and cornbread to contribute to the dinner.  Then we got the kids all dolled up and headed for the party!  We had such a great time!!  We combined the activity with another ward and so there were a lot of kids and a lot of people and a lot of candy.

Definitely siblings, right??

Greg and I threw our costumes together at the last minute... but I thought they turned out pretty cute.

There was a train ride, a bounce house and a merry-go-round.  Emma flew off the merry-go-round and hit her head pretty hard.  She was fairly traumatized.

JJ and Zac and kids joined us for the party.  They were a themed Star Wars family and their costumes looked amazing!  Here is baby George!  So darling!!

Emma and Grant look identical in that costume! Crazy! Um, hate to make a correction, but I think your friend was Han Solo . . . that's just my guess since I've turned into a complete Star Wars nerd. :)
