Halloween

Halloween was fun. We went to the ward's annual Trunk-or-Treat. Zach dressed up as Thomas the Tank Engine. We tried to get him in an Alligator costume, but he wouldn't do it. Brylee was dressed as a chicken. I wasn't going to dress her up at all. But I found her costume at Babies 'R' Us for $5. Who could resist?

There were lots of thing to do at the Trunk-or-Treat. Zach tried eating a donut off of a string without using his hands. I didn't see it though. I was taking care of Brylee at the moment. I heard it was hillarious. Maybe, next time.

I did get to see him Pumpkin Bowl. They set up soda bottles with water in them as pins. And mini Pumpkins were the bowling balls. He couldn't get any off the pins over, but he had fun anyway.

The activities commitee actually brought in a bale of hay and spread it around in a classroom. In the hay were a bunch of tokens. The game was to find as many tokens as you can. Zach didn't want to find tokens. But he was great at throwing the hay!

In what was scary stories for older kids turned into Halloween songs for younger ones. Sis. Lane was great. There were a couple of songs where she jumped Zach. But, as you can see, he didn't mind.

Zach wasn't very good at the trick-or treating part of the night. But what can you expect from a two-year-old? He didn't want to hold the bag, and was too shy to say "trick-or-treat." But he did want people to put the candy into his hand so he could put it into the bag himself.
