Halloween on the Base

I was lucky enough to work 6 am to 3 pm shift on Halloween! So I got to go trick or treating with the kids! My friend lives on the air force base and so we went up there for the festivities... We had to go and get me a 2 week pass. When I got up there and tried to follow her directions... it didn't work out so well! I ended up somewhere I wasn't supposed to be. You aren't allowed on your cell phone on the base, so I had to pull into a parking lot and call her and wait for an escort to get me to her house~ UGH!!!! But - we got there and got everyone ready!

I actually dressed up this year. Not a typical thing for me! Halloween is NOT my favorite holiday.


This is the view from Marj's house. I love it!


The kids and Sophie go to the same daycare. Sophie and Maggie adore each other! Dallin tolerates... they are GIRLS after all!


Marj was a bum. I thought she looked GREAT!


And Maggie looked adorable too. I think she was tired of getting her hair curled... She sat still for it so she could go to the church party, Scott's work party AND on Halloween day. That's a lot of sitting still for this kid!


Up on the base - the housing is all the same. So every house had a little step up to it. So every house Maggie had to pull up her dress. I thought it was adorable!

Marjori couldn't believe how well Miss Maggie could keep up with Sophie. Maggie was in those little click clacky princess shoes. Sophie was in sneakers. I think this kid is going to be a high heeled chick!

These 2 kept trying to blow out the candles inside the pumpkins. So funny!!! At least for me. Maybe not for the owners of the pumpkins.. :\ Oh well...


Look at Maggie's lips here. She cracks me up!!!


Dallin was off from house to house so fast that I really couldn't get pictures of him. I feel a little bad about that. But it's over now... Oh well.

I saw several signs for welcoming home daddys that had been off to war. It always makes my heart hurt to think that families have to be pulled apart for something as ugly as war...


OH.. and I saw this totally awesome truck... I loved it.


Anyway - Happy Halloween all!!!!!!
