Trick or Treat!

After being so busy on the weekend before Halloween, we were excited about just taking it easy and trick or treating with the kids. The Sanduskys came over to join us in our neighborhood, and we had a great time. We put Jack in the wagon and took off. We started in our cove and then went a couple of blocks down each street that connects to ours.


Before we went trick or treating, I let Jack play in part of my costume. He didn't mind the ears, but he didn't like the nose much. He had a ball playing with the dancing halloween chickens we have from a few years ago. :)


We let Jack trick or treat on our cove. He didn't really understand what was going on, but he enjoyed playing with the candy packages that he got. You can tell in this picture that Trent was impatient. He was looking in the window to see when they were coming to the door.


After a couple of houses in our cove, we put Jack in the wagon, and he loved it. He played with the glowsticks that we had. We said that they were his mini light sabers. :) He just liked the ride as much as anything.


After walking quite a ways, Trent got tired and joined Jack in the wagon. We walked up to the spooky house at the entrance to our neighborhood. I have to admit that it was pretty spooky. Trent was very brave until the man opened the door. He wasn't dressed up or anything, but the fog machine was going crazy and Trent started crying. The guy with the cool accent (according to Matt, he is from Wales) gave both boys HUGE handfuls of candy. They were really nice. They even have a website for their Halloween house! Check it out!

After trick or treating, we came home, and Matt and Floyd made a nice fire in the fire pit. We roasted hot dogs and made s'mores. It was a great night!
