Price Check: November 2012

We had a very busy Halloween and unfortunately never got a picture of all of the kids together because the oldest ones had to hurry to get off to trick or treat with friends. Brandon and I even dressed up this year to go along with the oldest two children's "Hunger Game" theme. Josh is Peeta, Kara is Katniss, Brandon the Gamemaker, and I am Effie Trinket. It was hard trying to find things exactly like one of the outfits she wore, so I settled on something that she "would" have worn. (We also didn't dress up on Halloween night, but beforehand for a costume party our friends do every year).
Zach was so excited to be a character from "Cars 2," his favorite movie right now, until he found out his best friend was going to be a pirate and wanted to be that too. Oh well, he still had a great time and keeps wearing the hat around anyway. Lauren absolutely adores the movie "Tangled" so naturally she wanted to be "Punzel," as she calls her. Lindsey is a vampire and won for the scariest costume at our ward Trunk or Treat.
It was a beautiful evening, so different from the freezing cold Halloweens I remember growing up in Utah. We had pizza for dinner (I was going to make soup, but ran out of time). Then we had donuts with hot apple cider that night after we got back from trick or treating (so healthy, but we don't usually splurge on eating things like donuts so it was a fun treat).
