The "BOO" Crew

Whew! It's finally over. I love Halloween, but good riddance. This year it seemed to drag and drag. We did have a good time though. Here are a few festive things we did this month.





Decorated Bowen's classroom door for red ribbon week










Went to the Staheli Family Farm and Corn Maze with the Morby's aka most darling family in the world.




Watched Cooper perform at his preschool program



Cooper and I went to Bowen's classroom as mad scientists. We helped with the class party.


Watched Bowen walk in his school Halloween parade


Made some doughnuts for the neighborhood trick or treaters.....


Made some more doughnuts......

And some more doughnuts. 400 to be exact(notice the bottle? It's what got me through :))

This is the set up in the garage every year. Most of the neighbors bring over their lawn chars and their Halloween candy and they hang out all night handing out candy and eating doughnuts. It is a blast!

And of course...... Trick or Treated! Bowen as Napolean Dynamite, Jackson as Tiger Woods and Cooper as an old fashioned golfer. Courtney was upstairs watching scarey movies with her girlfriends all night.

Oh my goodness Martha! You are such a busy woman! I love seeing all the amazing things you do. You're so dang creative. The boys look awesome and I bet the trick or treaters LOVED you! I've never had a hot donut while I was trick or treating!!

What a fun tradition! You are way to ambitious for me... Ok, WHY are you always hiding behind your kids? We want to see your cute belly!

How fun does that Halloween sound. Nice job on the donuts, I can't imagine how much work that would be. I am sure it is so fun once they are done and you get to watch everyone enjoying them.

I can't believe Cooper he is so big, that old fashioned golfer is so cute! Bowen and Jack look awesome too! Happy Halloween!

you always make everyone else feel so untalented. :) Because you are so very... :) your kids were hilarious. :) I should consult with you for future costumes.....I can never think of anything good.
