Halloween

This was Trace's first year being in school and being able to dress up for Halloween at school! East Sandy Elementary is really strict about wearing masks to school, so we set about finding a costume Trace could wear that didn't require a mask in order to tell what he was. We went so far as going to the playroom upstairs and pulling out the costume box and letting him choose what he'd like best. So, naturally, he chose to be a policeman for school, a pirate for the trunk-or-treat with his cousins and "Ant-man" the Avenger for the trick or treating main event.

This is his teacher, Mrs. Goodwater (aka Mario) leading the parade for the parents.

Trace is friends with Darth Vader (Dylan) and the Ninja (Liam).

Trace seemed really surprised to see both Mom and Dad at the parade. He even broke formation and came over to give me a hug! Makes a Mommy feel like a million bucks!

The traditional crew, ready to get some candy!

Mommy as the "wench" and her little Ant-Man.

Our neighbor "EJ" and his boys around the fire pit waiting for trick or treaters.

Love it when they just leave the bowl!

"Mom! Look what I got!" Gone are the days of "no thank you" for this little boy!

It's the Cat in the Hat!

If you run from house to house, you can get in more houses!

Love the inflatable sumo costume!

Our backyard neighbor always has out treats and hot coco for the kids, but this year, he also had the "big game" with University of Utah playing on his projector up on the side of his house. A real "treat" for the adults.

Fun way to end the night for sure!
