I'm only about a month late...

I have been neglecting my blog.  This doesn't sound too bad but then when I remember that I am using this blog to keep up with Arden's development and document Loren and the rest of our family, it makes me sad.  So, it's never too late to catch up right?!

For Halloween this year, Loren expressed pretty early that she wanted to be Cinderella.  I thought that was easy enough but I really wanted the girls to be something that went together.  The best I could come up with was a pumpkin for Arden.  (Cinderella's coach was made out of a pumpkin.)  I was in luck because my friend, Rachael, makes the cutest pumpkin tutu outfit.

My beautiful lil' pumpkin and Cinderella!

We skipped trick or treating in our neighborhood this year as that is always crazy crowded.  We headed directly to our church festival - trunk or treat event.  It was a fun time.  Arden didn't last long in her costume but Loren enjoyed it.  We got to see lots of friends.  Andy not only handed out but put on between 600-700 glow bracelets!  Jesus is the light of the world! ;)

Earlier in the week, our friend Leo had come over to trick or treat and show off his costume.  (Sorry for the poor picture quality)

Our cousins Cayden and Noah visited with us at trunk or treat.  Do you know how hard it is to take a picture of young kids all dressed up?!  Arden didn't even make it into the pic!

I had really hoped to re-dress them up and take some better photos but honestly, I don't think it is going to happen.  The girls had an enjoyable Halloween and so did we.  I can't wait to see what they will choose to dress up as next year!
