We had the funnest Halloween last week. Derek's parents got to come here for a 4-day weekend from their mission (it wasn't just a vacation for them though - Derek's dad had to have his annual checkup with his cardiologist - and got a clean bill of health so that was the best news of the weekend). So because his parents were in town Derek's sister came from eastern Idaho with her family and we spent the whole weekend with them, Derek's brother and his family who live here, and his parents - it was complete cousin craziness with that many kids all on a sugar high, but it was the funnest. My kids were in heaven with that many cousins 24 hours a day.
It was perfect that the kids didn't have school on Friday. Throughout the long weekend we took the kids out to eat in their costumes, went to our ward's trunk-or-treat, went trick or treating all together, played games, and had such a great time.
I love Halloween - it's so fun to get your kids dressed up - I wish it was more than just one day! For Halloween this year Tyler was Indiana Jones, Emmy was a Barbie Princess, Bailey was a cheerleader and Logan was a Tootsie Roll.
Monday afternoon Derek's parents had to fly back to California - after all, they are missionaries. What a great weekend!

It was a great weekend, cute cousins, cute costumes, and a clean bill of health for John. It was a success all around.
