Halloween 2008








It was a spooktacular Day. We had our annual Halloween event at ADP. Our group decided it would be appropriate to dress as the presidential candidates. I was Senator John McCain. Jamie was Senator Barak Obama. Wendy was Cindy McCain. Diana was Michelle Obama. Paula was Sarah Palin and we suckered Rick into being Joe Bidden. We were quite the group...After no work and all play I picked Conner up from Preschool. He had a blast at his preschool fall party. He dressed as Spiderman, the same costume as last year, but he didn't mind. He thought it was cool that he got to be two superhero's this year for Halloween (Spiderman and Optimus Prime). Afterward we picked Jared up from home and went to the O.C Shopping Center where they were having trick-or-treating and costume contests for all ages. Conner got a medal, along with the rest of the kids, for a great costume. We dropped Jared off at home so he could make it to work, (he was working the Football game that night), and Conner switched costumes so he could become his second hero of the night "Optimus Prime". Conner and I headed to the O.C Stake Center for the annual Trunk-or-Treat, where we met up with Grandma and Grandpa Turpin. Conner wasn't much into trick-or-treating at that point. So he hung out with us on the tailgate of Granpa's Truck while we passed out Candy to the kids. We stopped by to say hi to Conner's buddy Austin Monte (who was also Optimus Prime) and they played while I chatted with Austin's Mom Kristy. We even made it home in time to receive a few dozen trick-or-treaters. All said and done it was a fun and busy night.
