We had such a fun Halloween. We traveled over the hill to Hollister where Big Daddy and I teamed up to watch my niece and nephews so my brother and his wife and my sister and her husband could head over to Santa Barbara to run a half marathon. Yeah, I am the chubby non running sister, but hey I am doing them all a few favors; 1. They get to be the thin and fit siblings AND 2. I am always there to watch their children. Hey it's a win/win I get to eat cake AND spend time with my favorite kiddos! SUHWEET! More on all of that fun in future posts.
Anyway we went to the church for trunk-or-treat and the Taylor and Jordan helped decorate the car. They made a BIG spider from garbage bags and the little kids helped too. Then they put the spiders web all over the back of the car. They did a great job and the little guys liked being able to help but crunching up the newspaper to stuff the spider.

I have a BILLION pics to sort through from the fun weekend away. My reader is almost 400. I am dumping it...sorry I gotta be real, there is NO way I will ever catch up and thinking about it stresses me out! I will hop around a little bit but I am sure I won't catch everyone. Will we still be friends?

The kids looked great! I loved Tay? and J's costumes! Your car looked spoooooooky! (I parked mine on the side and ran a booth instead).
BTW yes we will still be friends! Is that another plate I hear dropping? ;)
so fun! you are the nice sister.
love the lashes. and glitterific nail polish. everyone looked FABULOUS! way to go getting everyone ready and partying down. that's way more fun than running!
What a nice sister you are! I wish I liked my nieces, and then I'd want to hang out with them. (Well, I like 2 of 3.)
Jordan makes a cute witch. The kid on the right in the group shot looks totally jazzed for Halloween!
You're like I am with Google Reader. I get so stressed out if I can't keep up with it. I'm not sure why. Why do we make ourselves crazy?
I love Halloween and it sure looks to me like you had a rockin' Halloween!! That's one of the things I really miss now that my daughter is off on her own now. The eyelashes brought back memories for me. I wore L O N G fake eyelashes one year, but after I put them on realized that they were WAY too long for me to actually see through my glasses! They kept getting stuck...so I ended up having to take them off. Great post!
Such great photos! I can't believe how grown up J looks with all the makeup on! She looks darn cute! I'm with Jules, "yes, we can still be friends. . . of course!" I mean, I have NO room to talk. So many blogs, so little time!! :)
Fabulous pictures!!! Kids are just so......great!!!!!
Jeannie

Okay I am going to ask -- maybe I missed it somewhere -- what is Trunk or treat?
Everyone looks great and sounds like it was sooo much fun!

Yea, you're following me!! I'm so glad it finally worked.
What a fun Halloween!!
Great photos! I gave ya a bloggy award today. :o)
Fun Auntie...come on down! We could use some o your kind in these woods!
Actually...my kids are still little enough that the novelty of being excited about their first few halloweens hasn't worn off yet...I'm not sure if I would have been ready not be around for that...maybe in a few years, when they want to be a bloody bride or something non-cute as opposed to princesses!
Jordan made a smOkin' witch!
Thanks for posting pics of all the kids!
