We had a SPOOK-tacular Halloween



Living out in the country, we never get Trick or Treaters
I avoid driving anywhere on Halloween because of the crazy moms with their sugar crazed kids.
Well this year was different.  Rebecca and her boys came for the Halloween Weekend!!! Wow, the fun we had.  Rebecca had some photo shoots set up here in Bend, so she planned it all around this weekend.
Here are some fun times we had.  (I won't mention losing her and the boys in a CRAZY neighborhood, with a CRAZY amount of Trick or Treaters for a CRAZY amount of time)
Trey would challenge any of us, at any time to play him a round of tetherball.  He recently earned one of his own.  You wouldn't believe how good he is!
Halloween afternoon we went to a lot of our friends homes. It was perfect weather, and they got were able to meet some of Derek's friends!

Cute Mason and Paiten!

Who needs candy when you get a Rod Cooper handcrafted birdhouse? Wow, Trey and Derek have matching houses!

I loved Tian's Shark costume. His tail wiggled as he walked!

Some people go all out decorating their yards. This was in the middle of the day and they had their sound affects going. Almost too spooky for me even in the day!

Terry & Carol knew we were coming so they raked a big mound of leaves just so the boys could jump in it!


Gina got all dressed up and decorated her yard just for us! "Gina, this picture makes me laugh...I need to borrow the sweater someday!"

"Charlotte, this is a GREAT picture...Love the look!"

All this happened before noon. Naptime for Tian.. Trey too, but he's too big for that (Or so he says)!
Then it was off to "Bouncing Off the Wall" Before more Trick or Treating!


We went "store to store" down at the Old Mill. Notice Strawberry Shortcake. Trey loved seeing all the costumes. Robert met us there too, and then to the Bulletin Newspaper Building.


If that wasn't enough we finished off at the North West Crossing Neighborhood. Rebecca and her boys made friends.. (Thank goodness the "Friend" had a phone to use when we got lost)

All in all, and 4 lbs of candy later, it was the most fun Halloween we've had in a long time... well, since Rebecca was just a little girl!
