Happy Halloween!!!

We LOVE Halloween! We've always loved dressing up and having parties at our house! This year was a little different and we had the party at the Davis'! Kristine and I made orange frosting and sugar cookies to decorate with fun toppings, I made pumpkin chocolate chip cookies too and Alex's mom made a delicious chicken bean soup! Not to mention all of the candy we had too! We had great treats and everyone dressed up! It was such a fun night and I am so glad we were all able to get together and celebrate! I love my in laws! We went to the trunk or treat with the kids, played games, watched a semi-scary movie..so fun!

Now about this years costume....it was all Alex. For some reason he had the idea in his mind that we should wear ponchos, sombreros and give Alex a dirty mustache(I used eyeshadow). Haha I think this was sparked by his mission in Mexico. I figured why not let him pick out this one even though it is Super nerdy ha. But I have to say it was WAY fun being this..we even stuffed my belly to make me more pregnant and Alex loved having a dirty mustache (not sure why) ha he is funny. We spent a total of $5 dollars on our costume...ha I've always made our costumes and think I will continue to do so it's so much cheaper and fun to do! I love that my husband is up for dressing up every year, it's makes for such a great time! Love him!
*There are a lot of people I didn't get pictures of like my mother & father inlaw, Heather and Lindsey but they were all there too!

Homeless guy, a bat and a cute little butterfly! Ha they are all in character in this pic

On Friday, the day before Halloween all of us dressed up at Zions Bank and had So much fun! Our wonderful branch manager ordered so much pizza for us and Oliver Garden salad!! SO good! And everyone brought treats to share so it was one fun day at work! The clients enjoyed it too!
We're missing a lot of people in this pic...love these guys!
Hope everyone had a great Halloween!

That's way cool you make your guys' costumes! And it's definitely fun to have a hubby that will dress up. Chris loves to but didn't this year, sad. lol. Looks like you guys had a blast! I bet you can't wait to dress up your little one next year.
