This year, we were definitely in the Halloween spirit. We were a little more "over the top" than usual. Any one who knows us well, knows that we typically go all out when it comes to any type of celebration. This Halloween was no different. I'm not sure if it's because I'm working fulltime now, so I am really trying to create fun family memories, or if it's because Mackenzie is a little older and it's easier to pull off with my sidekick. Either way, we made lots of Halloween arts and crafts and festive goodies the week leading up to Halloween. Jeremy and Mackenzie were in charge of outside decor and they did a great job! The night of trick-or-treat, we invited Nana and Grandpa & Aunt Emily and Uncle Cody over for dinner and to go trick-or-treating with us. It was a great night and they kids looked ridiculously cute in their costumes! Happy Halloween! :)-
