Happy Halloween 2013

Can you believe we've already had another Halloween? The years are just flying by way too fast! 
 
 Kyle wanted to be a character from Minecraft this year... It's a new online game he wants to play WAY too much.  He wanted to be a Creeper (whatever that is).  We found him a green, square head at Target and a foam sword to go with it (all from the Minecraft game)...but we realized he wouldn't be able to wear it at school because they aren't allowed to wear masks of any kind or bring any weapons (real or fake) either.  
 
So...he settled on Charlie Brown.  I even got him a "bald head" accessory, but he wouldn't wear it...crazy kid!
 
The Halloween parade at school...
 

 
 
Jacob whipped on by too fast at the parade, so I didn't get a picture of him...But I did help in his room for the Halloween party, so I got a picture then. 
 
Jacob also wanted to be a Minecraft character, Steve, who apparently also has a square head, but is brown.  And once again, he couldn't wear it at school because of the reasons I explained above...SO, he decided to be a Ninja!  Which was great, since I already had that costume downstairs in my stash of Halloween costumes...
 


 
Those are some serious muscles...
 

 
Cute Charlie Brown...
 



 
And here's Dallin.  He didn't want to go trick-or-treating this year...he just wanted his own stash of "good" candy, which he wanted to buy after Halloween so he could get a good deal.  A guy after my own heart...(he wanted to wait for the best deal--love that!)
 

 
And Brandon is too old to go trick-or-treating, but he did go out with Dallin and a few friends to some homes in our neighborhood, those families who love the youth of this ward....awesome people!
 

 
Grandma Johnson came over in her standard costume...complete with her "glasses" disguise and creepy eyeball earrings.  Ha!
 

 
The candy stash...
 


 
Brandon came home from "trick-or-treating" with this addition to his costume.  I don't know where he got it, but it was pretty funny!  He went to a 10:30 showing of Ender's Game (a brand new movie) with some friends and got home around 1:00 am...ugh!
 

 
It was a fun Halloween, but of course, it went way too fast.  The holidays have begun!  It's going to be 2014 before we know it!  UGH!
 
Happy Halloween!
