Halloween and Such

Halloween
Oh, it's easy to please our little girls with Halloween costumes! All they wanted to be was what they try to be most days: ballerinas and fairies with mommy's make-up on!

We thought it would be pretty cold that night, so Gracie was concerned. She really doesn't like wearing a coat, leggings, or anything too warm. During her prayer over lunch she prayed that it would be warm enough while trick-or-treating that she wouldn't have to dress warmly. We were surprised to actually have nice weather, and for awhile there, these costumes were enough!



Halloween Parties:
Our Ward party was such a blast! Here is our family picture. Millie was a pirate, Grace was a praying mantis ballerina, and Claire was a dancer.




Grace and Millie both went to Miss Kristi's preschool party. Grace was dressed as an Ant Ballerina (because she couldn't find her praying mantis glasses), and Millie as a Fairy.


At Grandma and Grandpa Yorgason's Halloween party, Millie was a queen. She asked Grandpa to pull out her tooth that has been dangling for a couple weeks. Grandpa gave it a good pull, then he left the last part for Millie to do on her own. She gave it a quick tug and got it out herself! That made for a VERY happy Millie Mae!
