Happy Halloween-2013

We have had a lot of fun with Halloween this year.  On Sunday Dawn and I took the twins and Hope to do the trunk or treat event at our church.  It was the first time we have done this and it was a LOT of fun.  We even dressed up Dawn's dog Max and he got to go too.  Isn't he CUTE!!!!

Of course everyone loved Max's costume too.

We had our beggar's night last night and we lucked out and it didn't rain and the weather was pretty nice after it had rained all day long.  Of course she came home with lots of candy.

Then Hope got to wear costumes to dance last night and tonight.  She wore a kitty outfit we had handed down from Annie.

Hy-Vee was having a trick or treat event where you could go around to all the departments to get treats.  Hope's favorite was probably the cookie from the bakery department.

And we got to hang out with Elmo.  Cookie monster was there too (peeking behind me).

Joe and I even got into the Halloween spirit this year too.  Of course last year at work I was part of the rock bank KISS, so we had to come up with something pretty good to compare with last year.  So we decided to go with a Duck Dynasty theme...

We had fun annoying our co-workers with our duck calls today.  When Shannon would blow her duck call I would respond back.  It cracked everyone up most of the day.  LOL!  We did manage to pull out another win this year too.  Now, I wonder what we will come up with next year.  :)

Joe's work also gets into Halloween, and ironically enough his department also did a Duck Dynasty theme.

I think parker looks like a skinny Hagrid (from Harry Potter).  :)

Overall, it was a great Halloween.  And Hope did the perfect song transitioning into the Thanksgiving/Christmas season.  She started singing..."Duck the halls with boughs of holly".....and instead of the fa la la part she made the sounds with the duck calls.  LOL!

So on that note, here are more Christmas cards I have been busy making.

Let the shopping begin!   Quack!
