In case you are wondering, Sam is an elephant and Lauren is a lion. ;-)
This year's main Halloween event was our ward's annual "Trunk-or-Treat!" Both kids were very tired and equally as grumpy right before we left for the party...so much so that Evan and I thought about putting them to bed and watching a movie downstairs with our big bag of Halloween candy from Costco. But we decided against it and put both kids in the car (without their costumes on) and left. At the church we coerced them each into their costumes (as long as there were no hats/hoods that had to be worn they were okay).
They both ended up having a great time (although we couldn't get either of them to smile for the camera). Who wouldn't have a great time in a parking lot full of friends with a big bucket of candy?!?
Later that night Evan and Sam lit our jack-o-lanterns. Sam thought it was the greatest thing ever.
Love this picture of Sam with his Daddy. :-)

love that you considered putting them to bed, and watching a movie while eating your candy. Totally something I would be tempted to do too!! Glad you made an appearance at the trunk or treat tho!
Yes, glad to see you at the church. Sam and Lauren were adorable!
At least they would wear the bottom part of their costumes even if they wouldn't wear the hoods. I was glad to be your trunk or treat neighbor for the evening =)
Kids are so random with their moods - in some ways it gets better as they get older and in some ways it gets worse:) They are cute kids!
Kids can be so funny about wearing costumes sometimes! Wish we were at the trunk or treat with you all!
So cute! I love that Sam wanted a CLEAN pumpkin! He's so great :)
