Halloween Fun!

Stace and I made our annual trip to Magic Mountain's Fright Fest, to visit our favorite friendly witch on Friday night. This time, we brought Jim and JT for their first experience of all that Fright Fest has to offer; it was fun to share the evening with Colleen and Rigo, too. We all had a great time together.

JT's parents had their children, while Grandpa kept Cora, Violet, Lucas and Liana.

Saturday was Halloween, and after Violet's baseball game, we got ready for the annual Halloween party at our friends Jen and Jason's house. We all had a good time eating, drinking, chatting and playing games with many of our school friends.

Cora wrapped up her buddy Trent like a mummy; she and Trent have known each other since they were 2-year-old Skippers together in Pioneer Club. They are classmates again this year.

Violet and Stace wrapped up Vivian...

...And then the toilet paper war began.














Then, it was Cora and Sophia's turns to be mummified.

When darkness fell, we headed home to trick-or-treat in our own neighborhood with David and Chris. Auntie Mel and Uncle Nick came along, too, and some other friends of our family.








When we were finished collecting candy, we watched a bit of the baseball World Series game and Toni and John's house. Then it was bedtime for the girls, and Stace and I watched Tim Burton's Sleepy Hollow film, which is pretty much the only scary movie I'll watch.

A very pleasant Halloween was had by all!
