October means Halloween is coming

This is the first time we've been able to do Halloween dress up together.  Joseph was a "handsome devil" for his youth dance.  The rest of the kids and I went to a Halloween party at a friends' house.  Jonas wore his robe and brought his pillow and was a couch potato.  Hyrum put a plastic pumpkin in the head of his coat, and was a pumpkin head.  Jenna was a vampire and Joy a witch.  It was so fun to be with the kids and have an excuse to dress up.  They were all so excited and it was great to see their personalities show.  I'm so grateful to be their step-mother and the opportunities I have to be a part of their life.

In my dress-up suitcase I also had a "big head" costume.  The kids got such a kick out of it, and our friend "Patricia" came to visit and dance several times over the weekend.
