Halloween

Here is our little family all dressed up on Halloween night. Clay was supposed to be a hunkie guy from "Grease." Then just before we left he had found these dorky glasses and suspenders. He said he had to let his true colors shine through. Macy loved Halloween and especially getting candy. She made a good little horse and "neighed" loudly when asked what a horse says, sometimes getting down on all fours for the full effect. On Halloween night Pinedale does a lot of community activities; we took Macy downtown to the businesses, then went to a community party with pizza and games. Next we went to the senior center where Macy "neighed", tried to say "trick-or-treat" and then "thank you" to the delight of the old folks passing out candy. Last, we went to the church for games. When we got home at we still had about 30 trick or treaters come to our house.
The week before Halloween we had a costume party at our house. Here are our friends and their cool costumes.

The night after Halloween, Clay and I went to an adult costume party. We dressed up as "Uncle Ben" and "Aunt Jemima." It was a fun time. We just had to scrub our skin for a long time so we wouldn't have to go to church the next day looking grey. :)
