Trick or Treat!!


Oh what a beautiful night for Trick or Treating!!! Our cul-de-sac started a food tradition last year. We block the cul-de-sac and set up a few giant tents. Then we all bring food (this year was chili) and our candy to the "booth." Then we socialize, eat, take the kids trick or treating, and let all the kids come to the tent rather than all of us hanging out in our houses by ourselves :) 

This year Josh was scrambling the day before because he heard that people at work were dressing up. He went to the costume store at like 9pm and picked up a fancy vampire outift. That morning I got out some eyeshadow and put it above and under his eyes. He really looked good! Much to his dismay, like 3 people in his whole company dressed up.....oops! And to make matters worse, he played raquetball that afternoon and didn't take off the makeup. Between the sweat and eyeshadow his eyes were KILLING him by the end of the game...double oops!

On "Beggar's Night" (saturday) we brought our chili and candy to the tent, and got the kids ready to get some candy!

Anderson's came over to go trick or treating. Their neighborhood is a little smaller with less kids. We went around two full blocks which took about an hour! The little ones, Lucy and Zachey, really got it by the end! They walked up and picked a piece of candy and put it in their bag! I don't think that Zachey knew what the candy was, but he sure knew what the suckers were!! What fun :)
