Halloweenie

We had a great Halloween. Oh the fun of free candy brings back so many memories!! I still get the urge to run from house to house to max out time when taking my kids trick-or-treating. We were out for an hour and a half until Whitney was so tired that she sat down on the sidewalk and started looking at her candy. I had to laugh, and realize that I had definately done my job - wear the kids out.

Whitney wanted to be sleeping beauty. Who knows how I got a kid that want to be a princess for halloween, honestly....a PRINCESS, I guess sometimes they are pretty scary. I had to add a wig to make it seem a little halloweenish. For the first year Whitney had no hesitation saying trick or treat at the door. Last year she figured it out and I think has rehearsed it over and over again in her mind.

Travis went as tigger, since we already had a tigger costume that fit, and he could care less. I suppose he should've gone as a princess, then it would've been scary! He was pretty funny trick-or-treating. From the first house he decided he was going to hold all of his candy. Unless I got it for him at the house because he was eating a piece, he figured a way to fit more into his hands. He was so sticky when we got back due to eating who knows how many suckers while we were out.

Here's a picture of our house, which I hope will get more and more decked out as the years go by.
