Happy Halloween

The beard lasted for about 3 seconds. Probably a good thing, b/c it covered up his belt buckle. :)

Getting the hang of how this works.

Drew and I both agree that this was the most fun Halloween we can remember. Neither Courtney nor I thought Willa or Gray would really understand how trick-or-treating worked, but boy were we wrong! They both said "trick-or-treat" and "thank you" at every house. They were so excited. I think the highlight for them (or us) was when a lady told them "We have special treats for people like you" and she and her husband proceeded to pull out a small bowl of full size candy bars and let them each pick 2. I can remember that rare moment when I was a kid and someone gave out full-size candy bars, it was always the highlight for me too. 

 We made it about 3 blocks, which I thought was impressive considering the kids had a party at school that afternoon. I thought they would have been exhausted. When we got home, Gray and Willa dumped out their bags, picked out some candy, ate it up, had a dance off and called it a night. Having kids makes every holiday so much more fun, especially now that they are starting to understand. 

Hope you all had a Happy Halloween!
