Halloween Came Early

Saturday we celebrated my FIRST Halloween! 

Yes Saturday was the 20th, so my Halloween technically came 11 days early...but you know what? I never even knew the difference! And mom keeps saying how relieved her and Auntie Kayla feel about having that fun party done and over with. The rest of the world is worrying about cute and scary costumes, decorations, treats and whatnot, but not us! We ALREADY did it. 

So we met up with my aunties and uncles and cousin Kyson and Peter! 

What a DAY it turned out to be. 

From Corn Mazes

to Slides

to Badminton

to Spooky Nummy Foods

to Pumpkin Carvings 

and Scary Movies

...sheesh...

No wonder by the end I was POOPED!

 Take a PEEK-a-BOO at my FIRST  HALLOWEEN:

We've got Captain America & Super-Mom, 
BYU Football Player, Referee, Cheerleader, 
Prince, Princess & the Frog, 
Wendy and Peter Pan.

 Cohen is in position.

The Heisman.  

Cohen with the Stiff Arm!

The flag was thrown. Let's see that in slow motion instant replay!

The Cousin Train.

"Hey, why you guys standing...didn't you know there is cool stuff down here?"

Love my boys.

Watching the badminton tournament. 

He is not quite sure if that hit was in our out? Too close to call. 

Cohen asked for ONE MORE picture. 
Of course I obliged. 
And OF COURSE it was so he could get his tongue in it. 
Silly boy. 

My Blood Shot Eye Cake and a Pumpkin Cake. 

The Spooktacular Spread: Mummies in a Blanket, Pumpkin Stew and more!
(Compliments of Kayla!)

Back to watching the tourney of Badminton!

Cohen took a hit to the face VERY unexpectedly from Kyson with a badminton racquet! 

Cohen COULD NOT believe it. Jaw is dropped in utter shock. 

Cohen accepting Kyson's apology. 

Showing us how tough he looks now with his battle wound.


IT'S PUMPKIN TIME!

Cohen going at it.

(Okay...I just had to try this one!)

We gave him a moment to recollect himself. 

And...there's our happy boy!

Ditched the lil' Tiger suite (that was mine and my siblings when we were babies)!

An all-around MUCH happier boy now (the suite was a little snug on him).

All of our work!
Kent's Creepy Man (though only 1/2 finished), our Y, Lyska's Spooky Face, Ki and Jaynie's Suzuki Symbol, Jared's Funny Face, and Kayla's Jack Skellington.  

One tired out boy. 

This is Cohen, 

  Keepin it round all 'round the town.
