Another Halloween here and gone, and we have the mountains of candy to show for it! We enjoyed having some nice weather last night for Trick or Treating, not too cold at all! This year we escorted one Roman Soldier, a Knight in Shining Armor, Rapunzel, A Skittle and a fearsome Dinosaur out and about the neighborhood.

It is always fun to introduce a little one to the joys of Halloween and Trick or Treating. Carter seemed to actually enjoy wearing his costume, and he especially enjoyed receiving candy for his cuteness. By the end of the evening his bucket was getting heavy, but he was not about to let me hold it.


As a side note, I thought I would share a picture of Spencer's pumpkin. This took him several hours, but he muscled through and really enjoyed it. He came away with first prize at the Pumpkin contest at church.

It was such a beautiful night, which made Trick or Treating lots of fun. We especially enjoyed having some special friends (Sydney's favorite friend Ella and her family) to go out with.





And of course the sorting of the loot...


Carter really enjoyed this part! He loved the suckers especially because he could open those himself. He would open one, taste it, open another, taste that. Over and over...

So much fun! Halloween may come with lots of sugar highs, but I absolutely love seeing kids running around in their costumes with huge smiles on their faces! Happy Halloween!
