Grandma was proud

Dear Grandma Mary,

You would have LOVED halloween this year!  Kedzie and Ethan were the ever amazing Hermoine Granger and Harry Potter.  Oh and at the tea party, Kedzie was a "deadly singer girl!?" Alex was superman, a pirate and a dragon! And Mr. T was a consistent blue batman! We missed you during our celebrations, but we thought of you often and named our tea party "grandma Mary's tea party!"  

We had so many friends come, I think there were fourteen kids.  Mom kept her cool and let us do practically whatever we wanted.  However, you'd be proud to know that she had some activities planned, yet purchased all the treats! She did good.  We had crape paper all over the house and then we dumped it all over the backyard and she didn't yell at us!  

We went to the ward trunk or treat as well.  That was Mr. T's first time ever trick or treating.  We taught him how to do it and he loved it.  He went up to Brother Fillerup who had an afro wig on and said "hey dude, we have the same kind of hair!" He had a great time and was really good at getting candy. 

We also had an awesome halloween night.  We wandered the neighborhood with our neighbors and got around 5lbs each of candy.  Mom paid Kedzie $2.00 per pound and gave the boys a video game for their candy.  She's smart to not let us eat whatever we want, cuz you know we'd eat it all!

Karen wasn't able to come this year because Lorenzo was sick.  Ethan cried when he heard the news.  It was strange to not have either of you here, but we understand why she couldn't come and hope he gets feeling better soon. 

We cleaned up halloween today and have started our "graditudings" chart.  I'm sure you'll make it on the list one of these days.  We are grateful for you and so grateful that you taught us to LOVE halloween.  It's the best holiday of the year for us.   Candy, friends and fun.  What more could four crazy kids want?  Well, their grandma, but we have her in our hearts.

Love, KEAT

Hope you enjoy the photos of our halloween adventures. They are pretty self explanatory.  Except, Dad...he was "random man" and mom was a witch doctor! Weird-os!
