Halloween!

For Halloween this year we kept with the tradition of trick-or-treating in Grandma and Grandpa's neighborhood. Grandma Whiting made Manessa the most adorable witch costume and Ammon and Leland were a hit with their DI specials. Mommy even got into the spirit and dressed up a bit. Not sure if you would say that I am in costume, or just let my real self out this time.
Here is Manessa with Grandpa Whiting. She has him wrapped around her little magic wand.
This is Uncle Tyler with Leland the cutest little chili pepper north of the border. I was too lazy to figure out how to rotate the picture, so you will have to rotate your eyes to get the full effect.
The kids got way more candy then they should ever eat and have been on a crazy sugar high since the Wart Trunk-or-Treat last Wednesday. Hopefully it will all be gone and then out of their little systems within a week or two.
