Halloween Part 2

The weekend before Halloween was a busy one for us.

That Saturday Morning, before the sun rose, we headed to the Color Run! It was a blast! We did it with my sisters Amanda and Carma. Grayson loved it and walked/ran/skipped/hopped about 1/2-2/3 of the 5k.

For those who don't know, the color run is a 5k. You wear white shirts. Every 1k you get what is essentially  colored corn starch dumped on you in a different color. So in the end- you end up looking like:

They gave out free Chick-fil-a sandwhich coupons after the race, so we went and got lunch. Headed home and gave Grayson about 3 baths to get him clean and down for a nap, then we showered ourselves.
That night it was our ward's Trunk or Treat party.
I was super excited about Grayson's costume this year, and about a week before our ward party, we decided to have Mike go along with his costume.

Grayson was the Old Man (Carl) from UP! And Mike went as Russel. Notice we even have a Dug (wearing the cone of shame) and a Kevin (bird).
Grayson loved the ward party. He enjoyed saying Trick or Treat. He loved the cupcake walk, and won his first time in it.

Sunday night we had our family home evening and we carved pumpkins. Grayson was more than happy to use a spoon to scoop out the pumpkin but refused to tough it with his hands.

Halloween was pretty low key. We went to a few houses in the neighborhood and then down to my parents home. I don't let Grayson have much candy, so we didn't feel the need to go around a ton. It was cute while trick or treating though, he would go up to other kids and say Trick or Treat and hold out his pumpkin. HAHA! Love that kid.
