For Halloween, my sister-in-law, Kina, took Malia and Kina to pick out costumes. Little Kina, of course, went straight for the pink princess dress. Malia choose a red devil costume and said she wanted to be "a dragon". Big Kina thought she might regret her decision later so she laid out all the princess dresses and hid the dragon costume among them and told Malia to pick again. Again, she picked the dragon costume. After several other attempts to have Malia decide on a different costume Kina was finally sure that Malia was happy. Sooo, Kina was a princess and Malia was a dragon (I know it looks like a red devil, but it is a DRAGON) and they both LOVED it. Seriously, EVERY morning this week both girls brought their costumes for me to put on. Kina actually wore hers dress so much that it was completely stained and shredded before Halloween even came - at least she enjoyed it, right? haha Thank you so much Kina! You've made such a special memory for them.
We celebrated Halloween with a few different events. It was a fun filled week!
 |
| On WEDNESDAY, we went to Tina's house for Halloween crafts and lunch. |
 |
| Baby Tali slept through the party. |
 |
| Getting twelve kids in costumes together in one picture frame was no easy task. . . but worth the effort. So cute! |

| On FRIDAY, we had a playdate at my house with Halloween games and easy crafts. |
 |
| We had so much fun! Line and I kinda tagged teamed the whole time so the kids stayed busy and happy. Can't wait to do it again! (Vai, Rachel, Elise, Unga, Tau, Talai, Elenoa, Spencer and Malia) |

| On SATURDAY, we went to our ward's Trunk-or-Treat. The kids had a blast. |
 |
| Our dragon with Hiccup and Astrid (aka Unga and Rachel Fale) from "How to Train Your Dragon". |
 |
| Our family - we decided that next year Wayne and I will dress up too. . . for the kids, of course. haha |
Hope everyone had a Happy Halloween!
