Week long Halloween activities!

Happy Halloween from the Braithwaites!
Ava the Lady Bug!

Our Halloween started on Tuesday at story time where all the kids got to dress up(I know sad, no parents we allowed to). Only a few kids dressed up so, of course, everyone loved the lady bug! Friday was the JR's Party at their place (pictures to come) and then Sat was the Ward party, trunker treating. Sunday was Halloween but we tried to keep the Sabbath day Holy so we did not go trick-or-treating. Maybe next year she will actually do the door to door thing!

Here's Ava just relaxing with her bucket of candy!Ava did sooo good at the trunker treat. When they'd offer the bowel she'd reach right in and grab as many candies as her little hand could hold and then stuff it into her pumpkin bucket. What a hoot! Next year we'll work on which types to grab, she kept getting tootsie rolls and nestle crunches...with the snicker sitting right next to her hand!...next year!!!

She was a little tired to we gave her some doughnut to pep her up a bit! Just kidding, I just thought it was a funny picture!

May personal Fav...probably cause I won. What can I say I love doughnuts!

Jessica put a video of it on Facebook I'm not sure how to get it here though! My mom watched it and said she laughed so hard she cried...I cried too but that's cause the doughnut was all gone :(

Our Home

Here is a little tour of our new home!
Welcome, this is our front hallway! (the gate is to keep Ava from going up the stairs and falling back down. We are still working on getting down safely)

Up the stairs is where Kensie lives! (they are left of the open front door in the first pic)

Last Stop on the FoRks Trip...Port Angeles!

I just loved Port Angeles...I would live there any day of the week!Here's the movie theater Bella and her friends went to!

Ahhh, and the famous "first date" dinner with Bella and Edward. I hear there mushroom ravioli is to die for!

The dark street Bella traversed to get back to her friends!

Back on the ferry and on our way home from our very fun day. We flew onto the ferry...the very last car. Soo fun! Thanks Kensie and Ava for the fun day!
