Halloween & Trunk or Treat

For the last few years, our church has put on Trunk or Treat, a safe alternative to door-to-door trick or treating.  This is pretty much all my kids know about the practice... and I'm fine to keep it that way for now (though they do love handing out candy to the very few trick-or-treaters we get at our house)!!!  We had a great time collecting candy, seeing friends, winning at the cake walk and playing on the blow-up slides and such!  Thanks SBC!  Here's some pictures of our Halloween fun!

The Miller Kiddos!
Zeke is Cole from Lego Ninjago, which he's been really into lately.  Lots of people thought he was the grim-reaper in his all black costume and axe thing... don't they know I would not help my kids in any way to that end?!?!  Plus, he's way to cute... :)
Ethan is a soccer player (he's been longing to play all season long!).  Thanks to Aunt Karen years ago for sending us this Danish team uniform!!!
Emmy is a pirate.  She was going to be Belle, but the day of decided she wanted to do something different.  She pieced together old outfits that we had from years past and made a pretty scary pirate!!!  After we put on her eye make-up, Brian told her that she looked like a rebellious teenager and Emmy was completely offended!!!  (let's hope it stays that way!)

Zeke's class had their Fall Fun Activities Day today! It was sooo fun for the kids.

We had stations that the kids rotated around that included:

pumpkin golfing

dangling doughnuts

gourd bowling

the Great Popcorn Challenge (relay game with popcorn)

fall bingo with candy corns as the markers

face painting

giant pumpkin circumference guessing

pumpkin pattern mosaics

fall cookie cutter painting

I love that I got to be a part of the day!
