Happy Halloween!

After debating between having Brooklyn be a flower or a cow for Halloween this year, Tim convinced me that Brooklyn would be the cutest cow ever. In following with the theme, we decided to be farmers. We went to a few different Trunk-or-treatings and then went to a Halloween party at Tana and Ben's house. We thought about going trick-or-treating in our neighborhood too, but weren't sure anyone was home because there weren't too many trick-or-treaters coming to our house. Sure enough though, they came out of the woodworks later that evening.
Anyways, we did go to Tana's Halloween party and had a great time. Tim, Brooklyn, and I decorated cupcakes to donate to the cake walk. Fortunately, we won a great cake in the cake walk, and I won a round of Bingo as well. We fished at the fishing pond and managed to come away with princess crayons, a princess coloring book, and a claymation Davey and Goliath video.
Benjamin and Emily also came down for the weekend and accompanied us to the Halloween festivities. They dressed to the theme of Yin and Yang-- Emily dressed as a missionary, and Benjamin dressed... well, gangsta style.
All in all, Halloween was a success. We got WAY too much candy, but managed to eat most of it by the end of the weekend.
