The Clark Family: Halloween all week long...and a few other things

We have been celebrating Halloween all week long at the Clark house! We carved our pumpkin on Monday night, and after much debate, we decided to carve Snow White. Last year we carved Minnie Mouse, and it was really complicated. Chris tried to convince Annie that we should just carve a regular jack-o-lantern face, but she really wanted a Disney character. So...Snow White it was!

Tuesday night Annie, Cason and I walked around the neighborhood with our friends Kristi, Joshua and Jacob Powell. Joshua and Annie are in class together at Preschool and I have become friends with his mom Kristi. They just moved to Beaumont from North Carolina. Annie was selling cookie dough for ballett and Jacob was selling popcorn for Boy Scouts. The kids had a good time, and it brought back lots of memories for me...I used to do the same thing when I was their age!

Wednesday night, we went to a local church for their trunk-or-treating and Annie dressed up like Jasmine. Thursday, Annie dressed up like Snow White for her Preschool Fall Festival. She had a blast, and I enjoyed seeing her with all of her little friends she has been talking about.

Annie was having fun dancing with her friend Olivia!

Saturday night, the kids dressed up and we had a neighborhood Halloween party before we went trick-or-treating. Annie decided to dress up like a bride, and Cason was Mickey Mouse. Annie won "best girl costume" for 3-5 year olds! We had fun trick-or-treating with our friends Brenna, Boston, Kyle, and Gretchen. Brenna and Boston moved to Beaumont from Florida, and Kyle and Gretchen have lived here for a year or so and are origionally from Lousiana. Both families live down the street and we have enjoyed becoming friends with them! The kids got lots of candy and had a blast trick-or-treating together!
