Halloween at Grandpa and Grandma Heilesons


The Saturday (October 30th) before Halloween we went over to Grandpa and Grandma Heilesons for lunch and then pictures of all the kids. It was a nice afternoon and the kids really enjoyed playing with their cousins. We went and got the kids together after lunch (different soups) and tried to get their pictures taken. I say tried too because getting 8 kids to all sit together for a picture is not the easiest thing. The kids all looked awesome. Rachel was a 80's Diva, Jacob was Hiccup from How to Train your Dragon, Kaelen was a dragon which went with Jacob's costume. Evie was a witch, Carter was Darth Vader, Collin was Batman and Lucy was a little fairy. Spiderman in the pictures was Gavin Evie's very good friend (actually Madeline's best friends little boy).


Kaelen was not very excited to get his costume on so we took him out and showed him Gregories new kitten and then he was happy. Rachel did a really good job with getting Kaelen to smile and play in the leaves too. I was really happy with how the pictures of the two of them turned out. Jacob was not very happy so he didn't get into any picture till after all his cousins came and sat down. I was hoping to get pictures of our kids together but it didn't happen till later in the evening.


After picture the kids went and decorated cupcakes. They loved that. Rachel went a little overboard with the frosting and sprinkles and Kaelen didn't want anything on his. He was just happy with the cupcake. If I ever tried to get him to put frosting on he would get mad. Jacob was my in between and didn't put too much of frosting or sprinkle on.

I'm so glad you came over that morning. Eveything turned out perfect, even the pictures. I think the weather also helped with that.
