The Beginning


Well, I did it! I have finally set up a blog, and I am excited. Now friends and family can veiw pictures of the kids, and I don't feel guilty about not sending them out! Hurray!!!!

So, this week is Halloween. Erik and Maddie didn't have any idea of what they wanted to be for Halloween. Last Friday before our ward's Trunk'er Treat we went costume hunting. Luckily we have kids who are easily pleased. We picked out a ninja costume for Erik(he was in school), and Maddie just wanted to be a princess so we found her a little asian girl costume and told her it was a princess costume. We felt like we needed to stick with a theme so Lydie's costume became an asian beetle costume. The kids had a lot of fun going from trunk to trunk. I had to force Maddie to continue(I don't understand how that could be...I never needed any encouragment to get free candy), but we did hit every car. The party was a success for the Ellefsons!!! Erik and Maddy are really looking forward to Halloween night. I will post more pictures then.
