Happiest Halloween

This year we bailed on our neighborhood for Halloween.  We've learned the past few years that there just aren't that many houses in our neighborhood that participate.  So...some friends invited us to their neighborhood which they said is awesome for trick-or-treating.  Adam and their twins are just a few weeks apart and love playing together.  So, after Fall Fest at our church we headed over and that neighborhood didn't disappoint.  It was AMAZING!!   I have never seen that many children dressed up in fantastic costumes walking around and that many houses in one neighborhood so into Halloween. We walked down two whole streets where every house was decorated and had someone in costume sitting out front handing out candy.  Some houses were silly, some were scary, and not one intimidated Adam.  He and his friend ran to each house for the entire 2 hours we trick-or-treated.  He would yell after they finished every house, "Hey Bo,   let's go trick-or-treating!!"  Caleb sat in the stroller and was very content watching the masses of children in costume walk by.  I can't wait until next year when Caleb is able to walk up to houses too.  You could tell he was just longing to follow the bigger boys.  Halfway through, we had to empty Adam's pumpkin b/c it was too heavy for him.  Chris and I had a blast watching both of them have so much fun with this holiday. 
(sorry about the blurry pics.  My camera had a hard time focusing)

Trying to bite the donut on a string.  Notice the other boys hand holding Adam's hand down.  Adam kept trying to cheat!! 

 Sharing his donut.  So cute! 

I couldn't get either of them to look at the camera b/c they were fascinated with all the kids in costume walking by.


Just one of the great houses we visited!!  So Fun!!

The loot!! 
(I've got to get this out of the house fast...it's too dangerous to have so accessible)
