What a fun filled weekend of costumes and candy. We started off the weekend at a Trunk or Treat Party at Grandma and Grandpa Diamond's ward. They served Spaghetti for dinner and had trick or treating in the parking lot afterward. It was a beautiful warm night and Alissa enjoyed herself very much. I didn't expect Alissa to start eating the candy (wrapper and all), but she did. I guess we have a little sweet tooth on our hands.
On Saturday, we took Alissa to our own ward Trunk or Treat party. Here is Alissa in her Fairy costume. I also have pictures of her with mommy and daddy and our home teachers family (Scott Mars). It was very funny that everyone either dressed up as a Star Wars Character or a Fairy. Alissa and Scotts wife were fairies while Steve, Scott's two kids, and I were dressed up as Star Wars.
After the Trunk or Treat, were were off to visit both sets of grandparents and then went Trick or Treating with Grandpa Smith. Alissa loved Trick or Treating, but her favorite part was walking around with a sucker in each hand like she owned the world. What a fun little girl we have.
Trick or Treating with the Chilean Miners and the Madhatter was quite a treat also. I loved these costumes worn by Steve's brother, his wife Satoko, and son Mako.
Sunday was actually Halloween although it seemed that most people chose not to celebrate that day. However, mommy wanted another picture with her Fairy so Alissa dressed up for the third day in a row. Because Alissa's cousin Mykin had a birthday on October 27th, we were invited for pie to celebrate on Sunday. So, Alissa dressed up in her fairy costume for the visit with Mykin's family. Since Tinkerbell is Mykins favorite Disney character, Mykin quickly approved of our little fairy's Halloween costume.
