Happy Halloween

...from all of us to all of you!



Tonight the AUC Spouses Club hosted a Halloween party for all of the families complete with pinatas, games,...



pie eating competitions,...



and a trunk-o-treat! We decided to decorate the trunk like "Survivor St. Martin." We had palm branches, trees from our house, and jungle sounds on the laptop. I even managed for find gummy geckos for treats!



Noah tried his hand at the Pinata,however for some strange reason, when I see this picture, it makes me think that when he grows up he may not be much of a ball player!)




Anyway, on to costumes... For the boys this year, I decided that purchasing real costumes would not work because they were far to expensive and more importantly VERY HOT! One lady tried to sell me a pink wool sleeper that was supposed to be a whoopie cushion for Nolan for $89. Needless to say I decided to try my creative side. After roping Chuck into the process we came up with making Noah a Jack-in-the-Box,...



...and making Nolan a dice!



However, due to some design flaws and the fact that the poor kid doesn't sit up very straight yet, he spent most of the time sporting his little pumpkin shirt!



We all had a really great time. It was so nice to have some time with the family and also to have plenty of kids for Noah to play with. He ran around for the entire 2 and a half hours chasing his buddy Issac! Unfortunately it didn't make him very tired because as he was running he also was eating a ton of candy. I think he is finally recovering from his sugar high though. Nolan even had some buddies to hang with!



Well I hope everyone had a fun and safe Halloween.

See you soon,

Matt
