Halloween! At Last!

Zoe at Castle Park for their Halloween celebration.

My little witchy-poo!

Trick or treating with Geoffrey.

The Boogie-Man in the bushes.
(She never knew he was there!)
Our favorite time of year, finally! Zoe had been so excited and anxious for Halloween night. It was made even better because Dave, Winona, and their son, Geoffrey were able to come along with us.
We started the night out with trunk or treating at a church here in town. The kids had a blast looking at all of the decorated cars, and the walked away with half of a grocery bag full of candy.
By the time we got home at 6:30, Grandma and Min-Min were already running out of candy! So Zoe let us empty her treat bag into the bowl. We ate yummy chili dogs that Grandma makes every year for us. Then we set out for trick or treating around the neighborhood.
The neighborhood was packed full of hundreds and hundreds of kids being driven in from other areas, so at some houses, we had to wait in lines to get candy!
There were a few really cool haunted houses, where the owners went all out, and dressed up with monster make-up and everything.
We came back, ate a little, then took Sian with us down our street, and the next street over. A lot of the houses had turned their lights off because they had run out of candy.
By the end of the night, we were giving out fruit snacks and crackers! Geoffrey and Zoe spent the rest of the night playing chase with Min Min on the front lawn, and passing out candy to other kids.
We had a good night, but it was nice to get to our own house, and wond down from all of the excitement!
