Happy Halloween

Well the Halloween "week" is finally complete. Blaine's social calendar has been pretty full. Last Wednesday we had Trunk or Treat at church. Here are a few pictures from the festivities.

McKinley, Blaine, Zeke, Jace and Payton ready to trunk or treat


Doesn't Landry look adorable as Tigger?



Payton and Zeke handing out candy from the Carter mobile. I think our "trunk" decorations were very festive.

On to the next social moment. Blaine helped host a "First Grade" Halloween party at Brant Walker's house. It was filled with pumpkin rolling, cake walks, and even a hay ride.... Fun, Fun, Fun. The "mummy" pictures are from the mummy wrap where the kids wrap toliet paper around their friend to create a "mummy"!!!

The mighty Power Ranger Blaine.



Have you ever seen Little Eli so still?


Andrew "wrapping" Blaine. What are friends for????

Last but not least.... Trick or Treating Halloween night...

Baby Deuce.... The cutest chicken ever.... Isn't he the cutest?


In Trick or Treat mode......Great decorations at the Kollmans.

Blaine had a great Halloween and he thanks all of you for all the treats. The picture shows the treats he got at the Streets' house. A $20.00 bill and golf balls. What more could a boy ask for? Hopefully your Halloween was filled with lots of treats and just a few tricks.
See you soon.

Rocketing with the Big Boys

raced again ( more aerodynamic)
