Family Home Evening

Tonight Grant was in charge of family home evening. He decided that he wanted to decorate the house as a family for Halloween. This meant that I had to brave the dangerously crowded garage to retrieve the Halloween boxes. It was a tricky process to squeeze by a big motorcycle and frame for a gate, climb over a chest with stuff piled on it, manuever over a tetering box and move a shelving unit to retrive the boxes. Despite the high potential for injury and becoming trapped, I managed to get all of the boxes into the house so our night of fun could begin.
The boys had to try on old Halloween costumes as they decorated. Grant has fit into this Ninja costume for the last 5 years! He says it is so comfortable. Mitchell was in charge of decorating the front window. He taped up several scary pictures.


Mitchell loves the clown hair. He said that he is going to keep it in his room for the rest of the year. I think the variety of colors brings out his softer side.

Mitchell doesn't care much for the LOVE glasses. He wore them for a good half hour before deciding that. I'm thinking that I'll find them in his room too later on tonight!
