trunk or treat, dressing up

Trunk or Treat at church this year went well. I decided to set up a photo station and took some pictures, printed them off, and gave them away. It was fun, and a learning experience. Next year have at least 2 cameras and an assistant, and a tripod, and maybe a light! Oh well kids had a great time.

Next on to that day everyone dresses up. Can I say Halloween?
Due to issues with the day, we had a "no scary costume" rule at our house. Our year, and some areas of our lives just demand we look at this day with a different light than before. We recently had a study at church that also made us look at it differently. I stil enjoy dressing up. I like seeing friends. I like candy. So we will still have fun on October 31st, no matter what it is labeled!

Doug and I were the clowns, as if you didn't know that. Blake is the very cute monkey. The foggy picture is what my front yard looked like. The kids, and Uncle Bud, had fun with the fog machines. The very cute baby is Ellen Ola's latest baby to take care of. His name is Rain, I think, (sorry Ellen), and he fell asleep just as I was holding him. Ellen and her husband are taking care of him and his brother for a while.
