Trick or Treat!

Both of the kids really enjoyed trick or treating! I thought Haley would be too young to really experience it or appreciate it, but no way! She was totally into it! We took her to the first few doors with her little candy bag (that she wasn't going to eat, bad idea for Mommy and Daddy) thinking we'll show her what it's about and then keep her in the wagon most of the remainder of the night. We figured she'd be happier in the wagon, not really understanding what's going on at each door. Wrong! She threw a little fit the first time Hunter went to a door without her..pointing and motioning for us to follow him. So we did and she kept up with Hunter all night long. Hunter was a little too excited. He would ring a doorbell wait a few seconds then open the door and try to walk in as I would quickly be pulling him out of someone's house and trying to quietly close the door before they came. After a few houses he finally got the hang of it..waiting for them to open THEIR door. No stopping to eat candy this year...he ran from door to door as fast as he could. After we'd filled their candy bags too far...we stopped at a friends house in the neighborhood for a Halloween party. It was mostly toddlers and children. First thing Hunter plops down at a party table to devour a little candy and of course a cupcake or "pupcake," as Hunter calls them. Haley got a capri sun for a special treat and sucked that thing down nonstop until it was beyond gone. Mimi and Papa stopped by the party to see the kiddos in their costumes just in time to let us hitch a ride home and wind down the kids. Hope everyone had a great Halloween!
