Homecoming and Halloween!

I forgot to add this in my last post: Our favorite homecoming tradition! Eating blue pancakes before the BYU homecoming parade! We started this with the Morris's and they should be proud to know we carried on the tradition for them. :) Zach actually joined us this time, standing in line for an hour to get blue pancakes and blue milk- yummy! The boys think it's great and they love catching the parade candy, too. :)
Weston stuffing his mouth...


Hyrum polishing off his plate! I don't know if Zach appreciated this tradition as much as we did but anyone who wants to join us next year better wear their blue and come on down!

Now, on to Halloween!

Kobi and Grace threw a lovely party with a beautiful table set with mummy dogs, witch's brew and gummy worms. The kids decorated cookies, made leaf decor and played the mummy game...

Here's the crazy kids in their costumes- What? You can't see Hyrum and Weston? That's because they are ninjas and they blend into the darkness...

Halloween night we went trick or treating- Zach grew a lovely head of hair for the occasion, though I made him cut it afterward. He kept blocking me in all the pictures...


Hyrum's costume evolved into a Karate Kid look after he wore the ninja thing for too many parties. :)


Weston stayed true to his yellow belt and had some great kicks and punches!

I was obviously the ninja/karate kid's mother with my asian robes...

And all together now- everyone pose! Now we have a big bucket of candy on TOP of the fridge (don't tell the boys where it is...) and probably cavities in our mouths. Good thing we have tooth brushes!
