Jeff's Grinch~He wasn't even trying to carve the grinch, it just ended up like this. He always does amazing carvings. The kids tried to carve their own this year and weren't happy with the results, so I am not allowed to post pictures of them. You can see mine in the background, I just drew a Charlie Brown face.
Our sweet bumblebee! Mikayla actually went trick or treating with a friend this year in a neighborhood that gave out full size candy bars. She scored a ton of loot!
Scary Clone Trooper! Zach went around our neighborhood and came home after about 10 houses, but still managed to get plenty candy. It was quite chilly here.
Charlie Brown~I finally got to call him Charlie for a day. Still think it's a cute name. But he is for sure our Landen.
He was not impressed with trick or treating at all, but was a great help in passing out candy. He never actually got the courage to put candy in anyone's bags, but he greeted everyone.
Seriously, is he precious or what!?!
You can see here that we have a lock box on the door now. The house will be on the market in a few days. Movers are scheduled for next week. Temporary housing is secured in California. We have a short list of houses to see once we get there late next week. The kids have been doing their last few field trips and play dates. Lots of cleaning, lots of goodbyes, lots of tears, but lots of excitement too! It's hard to be so excited and sad at the same time, but we are and that's ok. God is taking good care of us(as always) and we are so thankful for new opportunities and to be close to family. We had 8 great halloweens here and it has been quite an adventure, but I think we are ready for our next one!

Landen is super cute as Charlie Brown! And Jeff's pumpkin is great! Good luck in the next few weeks. I am excited to see you once you're settled (we're actually going to TO this weekend!).
Wow! Do you go there often? Do you have family there?
THIS FAMILY will miss you. So very sad we weren't able to make it at the end. Probably best that M & Z didn't see grandma's tears. Wonder how long until we get out west to see you.?? Can we keep a regular video chat system? Look for houses with MIL quarters. :) (Heavy sigh)
