Trunk or Treat 2009

Tonight was our church's annual Trunk or Treat, and we had a blast! I love being a part of a church family like ours where we have been blessed to get to know so many families personally and have formed special relationships with each. It makes events like these that much more fun to look forward to!

Well, miss Ella would not take a nap today for anything. Come to find out, she was too excited about tonight! I let her lay in her bed for about an hour and listened to her through the monitor just jabbering away. I finally decided to get her up and as soon as I walked in she said, "Go to church, have fun with Honey, Caysie, Moni, and Grandad, get candy...". All I could do was laugh! It truly amazes me how she processes things sometimes.

This year was fun because we had my mom and Caysie, Zach's parents, and my sister with her 3 boys there. The kids had so much fun going around from trunk to trunk playing games and collecting candy. While Z and I worked a shift at one of the trunks, Ella got to enjoy some pizza and some candy with the family. {Healthy, I know!} After dinner there was time for more games and bounce houses! Ella actually liked being bounced around inside with the bigger kids. She did not want to come out. :)

First, a few pictures of Ella before MOPS this morning...
(The piggies lasted all of about 5 minutes today!)




FBC Trunk or Treat 2009










This is as good as it gets with 3 little ones...it is impossible to get them all looking at the camera and smiling at the same time! (Not sure who the other little boy is???)


I just added this last one because it shows my baby bump. I haven't taken many pictures this pregnancy, but here you go...it's big, I know! Ha! :)


Stay tuned for more Halloween pictures this weekend!

Such a little cutie! I hate that we had to miss it. Next year, we will make sure there is nothing else going on!
