This one is of Rhys at the Halloween Party on Friday - He took a break from the Dalmation outfit.

We had a bouncy castle and beanbag toss courtesy of my friend, Kim.

We also had a duck pond with rubber duckies
The photo op that Chris so handily cut out and I painted
We also had guess the candy corn, a drag strip for racing cars and a can tower to knock down.
Cole showing me some of his trick or treat loot
Rhys in his costume - this was earlier in the month. I didn't get a good picture of him last night.
