Trunk or Treat

Tonight our ward had the annual chili cook off and Trunk or Treat. Kevin made his dutch oven chili and we invited the Ewings to join us. We kind of had a different perspective this year because the Elders Quorum was in charge so we all pitched in as a family to help Kevin out. One of Madison's leaders ask her what she had been doing all day and she said getting ready for the ward party. The girls were so helpful and cheerful throughout the whole day it was very nice. We didn't get to see much of Kevin throughout the night but we still had fun with Ewings. We also had a great time tasting all the chili. There are some talented people in our ward. Once dinner was over and the awards were handed out we headed outside for the trunk or treat. Madison was a trooper and dressed up but didn't feel like she could trunk or treat so she handed out candy. Allison took off and made her rounds but then ended up helping Madison when she was done. Ashley took off and thought she could make her rounds by herself but Capri stayed with her so I wouldn't be nervous.
Once Ashley made it around once she decided that Capri needed to go so she took her trunk or treating.
The girls had a lot of fun and really enjoyed that the Ewings joined us. Even if Mr. Dave kept on trying to steal their candy. Once we were done outside we went inside to find dad and see what he was up to. This is what we found.
Even though Kevin didn't get to sit down or socialize much with us he had a great evening and is happy for it to be over. This is one of our favorite ward activities and we look forward to every year even if Kevin's Chili doesn't win. At least we know it is the best.
