Swimming on Halloween?

Tavin's friend, Brady came over to play on Halloween. They play so good together and keep each other constantly laughing!!! They played with cars and trains, golfed a little, had a blast on the trampoline, and then to cool off, decided to take a dip in the pool.

Don't be fooled...the water was SOOOO cold, but they didn't want to get out...well, until we told them they could play in a warm bath.

Later that night we went to Nancy and Kelly Jones' for the AWESOME annual potluck and Trick-or-Treating. Tavin had fun with his cousins and all his little buddies. He followed all the kids up to the door, holding his own bucket, getting his own candy from people's bowls, and inhaling as much as he could get his hands on (wrappers and all).

Auntie Christi and Kirra

Not the best pic, but the only one of the fam. The fisherman and his "catch".

She always has her tongue out these days.

Loving his sucker. Notice it's all down his Fisherman license, pants, and boots. He's a mess!

I love the costumes!! Kirra looks adorable anyway but the fish is great! Looks like a warm outfit for babies too. Did you just stuff her in the mouth and pull it up or does it zip!

Tavin is a true outdoorsman......in his unders, in the cool weather and cold water. Looked happy as ever.

Thanks for the video. I love being able to watch them.

From Brandon: Getting his own candy.....for future reference, that is how you determine a real man. One who gets his own candy.

The Trunkkk-or-Treat is a superb idea. Wish we had that when Brett's Mother was younger. I love their costumes. They are such adorable great grandchildren. YOU ALL make me so proud.
