October 29, 2010: Trunk or Treat!

One thing I love about many wards in the LDS Church, is that they make it easy for the little ones to trick or treat without necessarily having to go Trick or Treating, particularly when Halloween falls on Sunday (the Sabbath).  So, no exception this year, our Larkspur Ward and McDowell Mountain Ward combined to throw a big Trunk or Treat activity.  So much going on, but I only got my camera out during the latter part when the children trick or treat at the tricked out vehicles parked along the perimeter of the church building.  So you won't see the chili cook-off and accouterments, or the haunted house, or the cupcake walk, or the children's parade, or, etc, etc.  But here's a taste of the fun at the end.


Emily and Walt Shumway

The Wizard of Oz?  Er, I mean Don Latham, the controller of the puppet show and "trap door" where the candy comes out.

There's Don Latham, peeking through the door.

And here is the Latham puppet theatre.

Diana White...is that Summerli next to her?  I'm not sure.

Remington Charles as a Yodeler.  Give him a nose and he could be Pinocchio
