Bella's 1st Halloween

My kids were so cute for Halloween!! They were a cat, dog and mouse. These were costumes that we basically had already from previous Halloweens, so we didn't spend really anything on costumes this year (yeah, me!!) Above is Bella in her mouse costume (this costume was one that Lexi wore her 1st Halloween also)
Spence as our little Dalmatian dog He was such a cutie.
Lexi as a cat, she said she was posing like a cat. Don't you love her socks. They were left over from a previous costume when she was a witch and she really wanted to wear them to school, since they were not able to dress up this year for their party at school.
Here they are all together. They had such a great time "Trick or Treating"!! Bella was in the carrier again and loved seeing everything and didn't complain once. What a good baby. While we were out we stop by for a few minutes at family in our ward that was having a party. We didn't stay long because were were all bundled for the weather outside (which was great by the way for Halloween) and didn't want Bella to get over heated in her outfit. We also had fun the Saturday before Halloween, because it was our ward "Trunk or Treat". We invited my sister and her family, and friends of ours. They came to our house before hand and we had dinner then went over to the activity. It was fun and I know the kids enjoyed it. The kids now have enough candy to last them forever. I always end up throwing out some around Easter, because they never eat it all. Partly because I don't let them just chow down on it. That's just me.
Here is a picture of there pumpkins. Lexi's is on the left she wanted it to be a cat, it has a tail in the back also and for the first time did it almost all by herself. Spence told me what he wanted and I helped him. We cut them at my oldest sister Carolyn's house. Every year she has an annual Halloween pumpkin carving party and gives out prizes. She always has prizes for all the kids and they love doing it and we love going and having a great time eating and socializing also.
