Halloween

It was an amazing Halloween this year. All three kids were totally into the holiday and wanted to get dressed up and go trick or treating. We went to many different events this year; a fall pumpkin festival at a local farm, a community Halloween event with vendors and trick or treating and a truck or treat event at a local church. They dressed up for school and each had a school parade in the morning. Then we finally went out trick or treating on Halloween evening. The kids got full use of their costumes this year.

Each was very specific in what they wanted to dress up as for the holiday. Nate, as usual, changed his mind several times, fireman, armadillo, transformer fireman, and policeman. We decided on policeman because he really wanted to have the handcuffs (and put us in jail). Paige and Phoebe were very sure of their decisions, Paige wanted to be Doc McStuffins and Phoebe wanted to be a Princess in PINK of course. Thankfully, I was able to find each of their requests!

Halloween night they came home with so much candy, we overflowith. the kids don't eat candy, so this year we bought lots of small items and set up a chuck E- che*se like store and the kids used their candy as currency to purchase what they wanted. It was so much fun to come home and do this after a long night of working for their candy.

Also, happy birthday to my sister! Born on Halloween day!
