A Gladiator & Snow White... (kind of sounds like the beginning of a joke, doesn't it?)

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!!! We had a good day. My parents came to town and stayed with us. So on Saturday morning we all got up, had some breakfast and then went to Cole's first football playoff game. They ended up winning 14-13!! It was a great game with lots of excitement. Congrats Cousin Cole!!
We then all went to Mel's and had a yummy lunch. I swear that is the best Fried Chicken Salad ever!! Just writing about it makes me want to get another one. :)
After naps and resting for a while, Grandma wanted to make her famous Graveyard Cake for the kids. Well, I guess it was for all of us. The kids really enjoyed helping her make the cake. They liked putting the decorations on the top.
Everyone was coming over to our house this year, so we decided to order a pizza (or three) and then go trick or treating.
The kids were soo cute in their costumes! Zach was a Gladiator this year and Sophie was Snow White. No fuss was made about the costumes. I was afraid that Sophie wouldn't want to wear hers. She was a pro... you wouldn't think this was her first time to go trick or treating. She was a little hesitant at first (with the strangers), but after a while, she started taking the candy for herself. Haha! She didn't want to wait for them to give it to her. Hilarious!! And she pretty much walked the whole time! She did not want to be carried. Miss Independent!
Zach... well, I guess he is a little older, so he knows when things are scary. If a house had a scary entrance, door, porch, or yard, he did not want to go near it. He would just wait it out and go to the next house. But he definitely wanted MORE candy!! :)
All in all, it was a great day spent with family. We had a fun-filled day!
My sister, Becky took some pictures with her camera too, so I had put a link to Snapfish on here. You can see all the pictures from our day! Enjoy!
