HALLOWEEN 2007

Ok, so I know that Halloween is old news for all of you that blog but I have committed myself to only blogging once a week. So here's the old news of halloween. Here are the fab 4 as 50's girls.

I didn't think this was so note worthy but when a girl in my ward found out about their costumes she was so surprised so I thought I'd share. Their belts that they are wearing are actually a piece of pleather and the buckle is made of a picture frame . I took out the plastic cover and pulled apart the sides (since they were just glued together.) for the fabric to pull through. It was all because of me being so cheap. The belt buckles at Joann's Fabric were about $5 each and the picture frames were $1. The last I checked, I saved about $12. The girls thought it was great and I figure it's a good lesson for them to learn how to be as cheap as their mother. We also just used regular cotton balls on the poodle skirts instead of buying the pom poms at the fabric store. I know that you are so proud, aren't you, dad.

Here is McKenna again refusing to smile for the camera. I guarantee she was smiling right before this was taken. She enjoyed riding in her stroller although her mother wasn't as smart as she should have been. I thought I was being a genious with the whole cotton ball thing but come to find out McKenna thought they tasted really good. (A little scary moment on Halloween night.)

We went trick or treating in the neighborhood where our house is being built and Tim got some good "action" shots.

Here they are waiting for someone to open the door. Olivia was more interested in the camera than the candy.
I figure I would allow one picture of me on the blog. We have so few of McKenna that I wanted to document that she is actually at these events with us.

Here is McKenna without a smile, again. I think her cheecks must be just too heavy for her. After Trick or Treating we stopped and visited with a family in the ward that lives in the neighborhood. It was fun although we all mentioned how much we missed going to the Johnson's and seeing all their halloween decorations and watching "It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown." We love you, Johnson's and miss you tons.
