Halloween Chili and Scones

After all of our partying and fun times, we had one more gathering--the annual Hall Chili and Scones at our house.  This year, Jena decided to stay in Provo and be at college and I missed having her around.  She really is growing up.

Luckily, Jessica and Scott aren't too old to spend Halloween with us, so we got to get in some trick-n-treating before eating dinner with the family.  Since I was working, Gary assembled the chili for the family, using his sister Valerie's yummy recipe.  It turned out great!

We passed out candy and Halloween bookmarks which were left from being in the library for the past week or so.

Waiting for their parents and younger brothers to be ready for trick-n-treating.

Waiting for the Frances to open the door.....

My attempt to get all four of them in the same picture.

Jessica did a little better...

(Family pictures will be fun with six age 3 and under.)

And the annual picture started three Halloweens ago--


And as the evening was winding down, Liam and Scarlett (minus their costumes) were just winding up by sliding down the stairs on their bottoms or completely laying flat and flying down the stairs.  I bet they can't wait to show Niki what fun the stairs are.

Happy Halloween 2017!

That's a wrap.
