The kids don't wear Halloween costumes at school here - so no parades this year. Friday night was Trunk r Treat at the church - it was a big hit, lots of kids and fun and we forgot our camera. (kids didn't hold still anyway . . .)
Saturday was full of parties and events - Tember had a girl scout field trip in Sarasota and the boys all had swimming in Sarasota. Spencer had practice and an hour of beginning water polo (which he LOVED) and the two younger boys had a swim party - luckily at the same place and close to the same time.
We spent a few minutes at the Sarasota Goodwill working on a Halloween costume for Tomer - scroll down and see what you think.
Theo had a birthday party he was invited to in Parrish that afternoon and September and her friends did a make-up tumbling class since they all missed last Monday's class - (kids were out of school so we went hunting for sharks teeth at the beach in Venice instead)
And we all had been invited to a Halloween Party that evening in Parrish - it was a fun day - very long and LOTS of driving. The Explorer died - but the new part is on its way - and we are nearing 90000 miles on the MDX. We spend a LOT of time in the car here -
The missionaries got to come with us to the party - anyone guess what they came as?
A friend of ours got some much better shots of the event and I will add them when he emails them to us. For now - the following is the longest I could get them to hold still:
| Theo =GI JO, Elder Brinley, Ben - Iron Man, Elder Gonzales, Tember = rockstar witch, Spencer = ninja |
| couldn't see a thing until the camera flashed - so the pic is a bit tight |
| I'll give you 2 hints - 1. NOT Zorro | 2. As You Wiiiiiiiissssssshhhhhhhhh |
We are tired today - not more than a handful of trick or treaters in the neighborhood tonight - makes us miss East Mill Creek even more . . .
The weather here just doesn't feel like Halloween - it is still so hot and no rain for weeks. The AC was broken in the chapel today - (sacrament meeting was very long).
More pictures to come - as the house comes together and we get some from friends I'll get 'em up here. Its nice to have the ability to sit and type again!

Cute pictures! The one at the end...if he isn't Zorro...he must be Buttercup's true love!...of maybe he is "Shelley's slave"..."As you wish"! (great costume)
That's a nice 'stache Tomer has! He makes a great Westley.
Nice Wesley! That is Drake's favorite movie. He'll yell it out in primary every time they announce it is someone else's favorite, also! We miss you guys.
Love the "not Zorro" costume. Funny how the missionaries dress the same at all trunk or treats...at least that is what we hear from our missionary in Canada. Hope you guys are all well!
Love ya!
