We're off to see the Wizard...

...the wonderful Wizard of Oz!

Hannah was an adorable Dorothy.Bryson the cutest little lion ever.Nic a stunning tinman, and I a goofy scarecrow! I wanted to do a family theme this year. Nic told me if I put it together he would do it! He nearly backed out a couple days before... but he was a sport! It was sure fun! We had a lion costume to borrow for Bry, so the theme all stemmed from there. Hannah loved being Dorothy (even though she's never seen the movie). She even wanted us to call her Dorothy instead of Hannah.

We didn't have a ward trunk or treat this year, which was actually kind of nice. Last year seemed so crazy. We were invited to dinner by both my sister Ashley and Nic's sister, Alecia, and declined both. (Thanks anyway guys!) We wanted to get an early start, go trick or treating a little bit in our neighborhood for the first time, see the grandparents, and then get to bed early (so 9am church would be successful the next day.)
So on Halloween we were dressed up by 2 pm! We went down to Main Street here in SF and trick or treated to some businesses, then stopped in to Granny's, headed to Orem to see my mom and dad, on the way back picked up a jack-o-lantern pizza from Papa Murphy's, stopped in at Clyde and Marj's, then at home, Nic took a quick shower, Bry got out of his costume that was a little too small (his poor little knees couldn't quite straighten out). Then while Nic cooked the pizza, Hannah and I went to just a handful of homes in our neighborhood and trick or treated. Then back at home Alecia and Drew stopped in, we ate pizza and Hannah had a wonderful time giving treats to the trick'r treaters. The kids were in bed by 7:45 and it was a happy, successful Halloween!
