Annual Miller Fishpond

The Millers have a tradition every Halloween that we get together, eat broccoli & cheese soup out of bread bowls, bring the kids dressed up and have them do a "fish pond".  They go fishing over the stairs and get some fun prizes.  This year we were bummed to be missing so many cousins (like, more than half) but we tried to make the best of it.  Things started off pretty normal.  Some lacing books, window clings  and some cookin'.

A little decor...

I swear, I'm too impatient to make the roux on a soup.  So I just became the photographer.

Then a small fashion show...

Mr. Cow Kitties.

The excitement is building, we have 1/2 of the kids in the picture...

Now 2/3

Now a different 1/2

And finally everyone with Papa.  I think BYU won their home game which would indicate the #1 signs?

Enter Willie dressed up as a Gorilla.  Everyone LOVED it...except for Gracie.

It was a pretty sweet costume...

She was pretty upset until she saw who it was...I wonder if she'll ever trust Willie again.

He was on fire inside that thing.

Aunt "Manda" and Hannah

Isn't she a babe?

This is when things get really weird...and we get really punchy.

Grapes are good for eating and all--but they're much more fun to play with.

(Please don't hate me for this picture Willie...but just wait for the one coming up of me).

Dad was a fan..

Willie is trying to sweeten me up before the grand finale..

I can't BELIEVE I'm really posting this--but most of you know I've pretty much lost all my pride through my "Why didn't they tell me posts" so I might as well share this one...

Danny says it reminds him of a scary lady on the bus.  A lady that he wouldn't want to sit by.
