Trunk or Treat

Tim was Yoda, Christopher was General Grievous (a Star Wars character), John was Darth Vader, and Anna was a butterfly. The boys tried to get Anna to go with their Star Wars theme, but she would have none of it. Way to hold your ground, Anna Jean!
In the picture below, Tim and I were tickled by how the sun came down through the clouds on his head, just like in Dagobah! (You have to be a real Star Wars geek to understand what I'm talking about.)

Jeff Smith did hayrides around the church property.

People were actually asking to have their pictures taken with Yoda.

We had well over 400 people at Trunk or Treat this year! There were so many people, infact, that we could not get an exact count. When it came time to line-up for the trunks, people were wrapped around the building. Praise the Lord!

A new trend at this year's TOT was people bringing their dogs. Below was Palin, who belongs to (our very politically conservative friends) the Cherrys. Palin is dressed-up like the Little Mermaid. True story: During Trunk or Treat, Palin actually chewed through her leash and ate her tiara!

My favorite costumes of the evening belonged to Dorothy and the Good Witch, with real-live dog Toto.

John with his friends Bryson and Josiah Robinette, below. Kaylee and Jenna Davis, the boys' friends from school joined us.

OB1 couldn't help himself from fighting Darth Vader in our yard.

Andrew, Stacy, and Ayden Graham.
