Halloween 2016

Halloween this year was pretty fun.  Eli was a werewolf, Diego dressed up as a ninja, and Ruby was a princess (a Cinderella/ Elsa mix).

Eli at the Swigert parade.  It was a warm day out there in the sun.  Everyone was commentating about how hot it was for Oct. 31st.

Diego with his pumpkin mask during his class party.  I signed up to help with the party- I was in charge on the snacks.  

Mummy Game.  Tallie was wrapping up Diego.

Pre Trick-or-Treating picture.  They all had a great time.  The boys found some neighbor boys to walk around with and Cesar and I stayed right by Ruby as she went from house to house.  She loved it and was always sure to say thank you!  

A few days before Halloween we went to Nick's Gardens just like every year.  It gets bigger and better (and more expensive) every year.  

The boys went on the Tunnel of Terror ride and said it was fun and pretty scary.

 After Nick's Ruby went to preschool and the boys and I went by our old townhouse in Aurora (right across from Nick's).  It was nice to see it and we even knocked on a few neighbors doors, but no one was home.  Eli remembers living there.  

We continued the fun by going to Nickel-a-Play, an arcade in Aurora.  It was our first time there and we all had a good time.  It's not very expensive and they have some games that I like too- Pac-Man, Tetris, air hockey, and skeeball.  The boys loved it!  Diego got 3 stuffed animals from the claw game and Eli liked playing Dance Revolution.  

We also went to our ward's Trunk-or-Treat.  This year it was in the afternoon instead of at night.  We ate chili and soup in the courtyard and then came out to the parking lot to trunk-or-treat.  It was another warm day and it felt a little strange to be eating chili under the hot hot sun!
