What a great Halloween! True, we only had ten trick or treaters, but that's ten more than we've had the last two years at our old house. Hopefully we'll build up some momentum over the years.
We decided to have people over for chili and snacks this year, the kids are getting too young to want to drive around town all night, and they're old enough to appreciate candy. Jayden went as Buzz Lightyear, his first costume where he really gets to be something he absolutely loves. He flew through the house all evening with his arms up and making the appropriate sound effects (usually with a sucker in his mouth all night).
Here are few pictures of the kiddos:
Jayden as Buzz Lightyear
Ethan as part of the marching band
Taylor as a princess
Jacob as a jumping frog
Their first Trick or Treat house! As you can probably tell, Jayden was a little leery of walking up to strangers houses.
Taylor had to make sure Jayden was holding her hand all night.
The kiddos!
Very spooky.
The especially had fun crunching in all of the leaves!
