Trunk-Or-Treat 2014

Moving right along from Denyce's Birthday to Halloween. This year was our first Trunk-Or-Treat at church. I personally loved it and hope our church will continue this tradition. I felt so much safer to let the kids roam around in our church's parking lot verses worrying about them if we were out in the streets. There were some many creative cars with different themes passing out candy and prizes. We got to see so many awesome costumes too! And Denyce got to hang out with her friends from church. 
We weren't sure at first what we wanted to be for Halloween but Denyce was set on using her giraffe one piece she had previously ordered online. I tried to convince her for another costume but her mind was set. So I thought, okay how about all the kids go as little animals too. I was lucky enough to find a cute pink bunny for Bri, a silly monkey costume for my youngest and a handsome dino for Eli. The best part was the material-super soft and extra warm. All the costumes came with hoodies which was perfect and a chilly, windy night. I decided to paint my face and of course Jared wanted to wear his Jason mask (think I'm going to throw that ugly thing away...shhh) 
After the kids filled their buckets, we laid on the lawn and watched a movie outside on the projector. And had snacks the church provided. All in all, we all enjoyed ourselves.  :)
