Finally - Halloween!

We had a great time! We went Trick or Treating in Seven Hills at my aunt and uncle's neighborhood, living the dream... Someday we might have a house like that...

We were gone most of the night and weren't home to give out a single piece of candy. It is really more about the experience, less about the candy. I don't know about other cities, but it seemed like at least 1 in 2, if not 1 in 3 homes gave out candy - the rest were dark. I guess they could have been like us - taking their kids around the neighborhood. That being said, the kids still got a ton of candy, and many houses gave out full sized candy bars.

We are taking some of our candy to a local dentist to get $1 and 1 raffle ticket per pound of candy. The kids are more excited about the few dollars they will get than sad about losing some candy. Matt kept his favorites anyway, so he's set :)

Who wouldn't love having these little cuties come to their door?


Or these...

Your costumes turned out awesome- as always! You guys sure know how to celebrate Halloween! Glad you had fun- isn't it so much fun when the kids get so into it? That's my favorite part- seeing them get so excited.
