Halloween 2011

Matt and Alicia called and wanted to have a big Halloween party with the kids. So we went to Lynn and Russell's. I made potato cheese soup and we brought dry ice and root beer,  Matt and Alicia brought all the fixing for caramel apples. They were fun to make. I tried to re-create Rocky Mountain Chocolate factory's Key Lime Pie...I dunked it in caramel then rolled it in lime Jell-O and then in crushed graham crackers. I thought it turned out pretty dang good. We carved pumpkins, told scary stories, watched Hocus Pocus and played hide the glow sticks! It was a fun night.

Rick telling the kids a scary story about a hunchback.

They say people look like their dogs...I think people look like their pumpkins.
I had no desire to carve my pumpkin, so I cheated and asked Russell for spray paint. It is suppose to be a devil. Not sure if I pulled it off. Zoe kept telling me it needed a pitch fork. Oh-well.

Addie had Kelsey carve the pumpkin in the front and back. :)

Russell's turned out really cool. He Googled a picture before he started.

Scott and Teeky, (Peter Pan and Jail-bird), Halloween night.We always let the kids trick-or-treat in Lynn and Russell's neighborhood after we eat, (usually a potato bar). I'm still waiting for the day we get vandalized for never being around on Halloween, but it hasn't happened yet.

Aspen and Brooke, (mermaid and devil).

Teeky as a zombie prisoner! I don't think Teeky remembered trick-or treating last year so I was so excited for him this year. He caught on quick and loved it.
He is still talking about it two weeks later. Ryker went as a demon.
Jadey went as a mummy.
Russell went out with his friends and got a ton of candy. He went as Freddy Krueger.
