Halloween The Triology

Our Halloween fun started with the Base Trick-or-Treat back on the 26th. Spencer dressed up as a Pirate.

Me: "Hey Spencer, make a pirate face."

Have you ever seen a fiercer scallywag? 

We met up with some friends, this is Elena

They were friends back in Maryland and we followed them over here. Sadly they are on the way back to Maryland in a few weeks. I think once they leave Spencer will lose all motivation to do anything. Before leaving the house Spencer will often ask "Will Elena be there?" If I say 'yes' he'll quickly comply, if I say 'probably not' then he'll drag his feet. I've learned though not to say 'yes' unless I'm absolutely sure we'll be seeing her otherwise Spencer just can't handle life and he falls apart.

We only lasted 40 minutes trick-or-treating on base. It was freezing outside, literally 32 degrees.

Halloween day two we had our ward Trunk-or-Treat at The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.

Games and festivities started at 6:30 with the Trunk-or-Treat following at 7. We pretty much missed all the games because halfway to church we realized we forgot our candy and had to turn around.

We caught the Scarecrow parade though. Spencer happily paraded around showing off his newly found facial hair.

After the parade we headed outside to the cars. It was much warmer this time at 47 degrees. We almost didn't need jackets...almost. I didn't get any pictures of the decorated cars because I was taking BOTH Spencer and Natalie around Trunk-or-Treating. I had to take Natalie because she decided she only wanted her mom. After making our rounds Spencer went back to our car to help daddy pass out candy.

He enjoyed passing out candy just as much if not more than trick or treating. (You can consider this picture an update on my face as well. As you can see the scabs are all cleared up and gone. I still have a few red marks but they are fading quickly.)

AND FINALLY, Day 3, the real Halloween. We stayed in and let Spencer pass out candy. We probably had about 30 trick-or-treaters. He had a blast!
