Halloween Fun Young and Old


Ok, Halloween has come and gone. Maddie had her first trick or treat experience, and she buzzed around as a bee, whereas Ben quacked while he trick or treated. Halloween these days is fun- and it is drawn out too! Between Fall Festivals, and now with the advent of "Trunk or Treat" we are covered in too much candy, but we get lots of mileage out of those costumes! Todd and I even ventured out for some halloween fun thanks to my fellow preschool moms. Boy do they know how to have a good time! Many thanks to Allyson for hosting the Murder Mystery soiree. Since our photo might not be very self-explanatory, we were characters in the murder mystery. Todd was Puck (the prankster) and I was Guinevere (Arthur's trophy wife) thus the trophy around my neck. Many thanks to my 12 year old neighbor who loaned me the hardware. Todd wore a mullet; you know, business in the front, party in the back. Well, I have to say, Halloween is inching up as one of my more favorite holidays.
Here we are at the "Trunk or Treat" at Ben's preshcool. It was a great event for families, and the kids loved it. Although Ben doesn't look thrilled in the photo- truth is, he had just gotten up from a long Sunday afternoon nap! He loved the games and the trick or treating from car trunks! Only in America.












Halloween Night was not so frightful. We had fun visiting with a few neighbors. Candy? What candy?
