For Halloween, we had lots of fun this year. Emilia was Ladybug Girl (she is a character in a series of really cute books), and Mira took over as Princess Leia. Steve had a work party where they had games for the kids and food for everyone. Emilia got some candy there.
Then we went to the ward's trunk-or-treat. I had never heard of a
trunk-or-treat growing up, but they are pretty popular here. Instead of
kids going around the neighborhood to trick-or-treat, a bunch of people
decorate the trunks of their cars and park in the same parking lot (our
church building for this one) and the kids go around to the different
cars to get their halloween candy. My girls wouldn't eat the pulled
pork at the work party, so we got some chicken nuggets and french fries.
They ate those while waiting to get more candy at the trunk or treat.
After the trunk-or-treat, we went to Grandma and Grandpa Watts' house,
where Steve took Emilia door to door for about a 1/2 hour. Then we got a
picture tour of France from Nick and Wilda who had just returned from a
week-long trip to Paris. All in all, it was a fun Halloween for all of
us!
