Once again Russ had to miss Ethan's Halloween... so that sucked really bad. He was in North Carolina last year, and this year he was up at the base at 29 Palms. (sad). Russ was sad too, I kept sending him pictures of Ethan trick-or-treating so he could see Ethan in action. lol. Hopefully next year Russ will be home from deployment before Halloween!
So this year was a little bit of a struggle to get Ethan into his Buzz costume. He didn't want to put it on and go trick-or-treating. I ended up having to bribe him with Cheetos to put his costume on. So he finally did. We went to our Church's Trunk-or-Treat on Saturday night. Ethan loved that. Except for the scary trunks... an old couple had their trailer open with like a horse shoe of hay in there, and when you would walk over to the bowl, you would step on a mat, and that would make the hand in the candy bowl move and grab you! Ethan screamed and cried! lol. So I had to grab that candy for him. (there is a picture of that trailer down there). He had fun with all the trunks where you could just grab your own candy. He took FOREVER deciding what to take. lol. 
Ethan right when we got to the church. Once he saw all the other kids in costume he felt better about wearing his. lol
Pick your own candy..... he took forever.
This young women was super nice. She thought Ethan was so cute because he said "candy please" instead of trick or treat... so she gave him extra candy!
One of the family's had this game. You had to throw the bean bag into the hole to get a candy.. Of coarse they gave it to you if you didn't make it, but Ethan made his!!!
This is the "spooky" trailer (Ethan called it spooky).
A nice lady in the ward!
All done with Trunk-or-Treating!
So on Sunday we went Trick-or-Treating! We went to the houses up where one of our friends live.They are actual houses, not duplexes, so it was nice. They are the houses for the Staff NCO's so they get paid more... so we figured they would have better candy... lol. She doesn't have any kids and her hubby is deployed, so she absolutely loves Ethan, Zoey and Katelynn. (that's who we went trick or treating with) So here are some pictures from Sunday!
This is Al! We call her Uncle Al. lol. We went to her house first. She was so excited to see all of us!
The one thing I love about California is that it was so warm that people just sat outside and passed out candy. In Utah its usually snowing or freezing cold.
Ethan had 2 designated daddy's last night.. this is Johnny
And this is Chuck. They were so nice to help Ethan out!
Katelynn walking up to get some candy.. Ethan is hiding his bag because he doesn't want her to get any of his candy.
Just a fun picture in front of someones house!
Katelynn PASSED OUT! We got near the end, and she was just a limp doll. She would not wake up! Chuck is holding Zoey in the back ground.
Ethan once again said "candy please". I guess its the polite thing to say. He also said "thank you" after he got candy!
The spiderwebs kinda made him nervous... lol
2010 Halloween!
We had so much fun. I hope everyone in Utah had fun too!
He looks so cute!! It looks like he had a lot of fun. So how do you like your ward? Love youuuuuuuuuuu!
