Presenting.....

Princess Anna of Arendelle and Captain Carter the pirate of the seas!!! 
The kids were very excited to get to wear their Halloween costumes for the first time last Tuesday (10/14) at the Ward Halloween carnival.  Nana just finished the final touches to Aubrey's costume which will be presented in the next couple of posts.


Aubrey went back and forth on either Anna or Elsa.  We were going to make her dance costume from the Spring dance recital look more like Elsa but when she found this Anna costume she fell in love so we went with it.  Aubrey actually talked Carter into being Olaf but we thought he would much rather be a more "boyish" costume.  We also though every family would probably try to pull off the whole Frozen gang so we wanted to be a little more original.  But to our surprise the last few costume events we have been too Aubrey has been the only Anna and there has just been one other Elsa at each event.  At the carnival we ran into this Elsa...... 
We have no idea who she is but thought it would be fun to get a picture with her.  Lol look at Aubrey's face!
This was the first big Relief Society event that I have not helped with in over 3 years.  I'm so happy to be in Primary now and not have the stress of activities! I was suppose to actually still help and I guess be on the committee still but I really needed a break.  So this was a nice a treat to be a guest and just enjoy.  It was a really fun event very similar to what we did last year.  It was a chili cook off, fashion show, and carnival games.
Aubrey was very shy when it was her turn to model.
 Carter not shy one bit!
 The cake walk was a blast!
 Carter's favorite was the face pie smashing.
 Aubrey liked the ball toss and the cake walk the most.

 Carter was very excited to run into his preschool friend, Afton.
 It was a fun night!

Since I didn't want to do another post just on our puzzle I thought I would just add it to this one.
We have been loving working on puzzles as a family.  We just finished our first 550 piece one:
 The kids are great at puzzles!! I could not believe we did this one in less than a week!
 Next one will be 1000 pieces!!
