Trick-or-Treat!

The boys had soooooo much fun trick-or-treating!!!

We started out the morning by trying on the Halloween costumes (to make sure the puppy would wear his!) They had lots of fun playing in costume in the basement :)


All set to go out! Jack took a very nice nap in the afternoon because I told him he needed lots of energy to trick-or- treat so he needed to GO TO SLEEP! And he did :)




The boys played out in the leaves in the front yard before trick-or-treat started. Then we headed over to see Grandma B and Uncle Hayden.





Puppy Jayden was a little more interested in the Smarties in his pumpkin, than in walking & having his picture taken....


After we got home from Grandma's I took the boys around out neighborhood. We were headed toward Miss Cathie's house, because Jack wanted to she her his costume. We hit all the houses on the way then visited with Cathie for a few minutes then got some more houses on the way back. I carried Jayden most of the way as he munched on Smarties...... Jack did great! He walked/ran all on his own and after every house he said "where do we go trick or treat next, mom?" And at each door he said "trick-or-treat" and "thank you!"

After we made it back to our house, daddy took the boys down the other end of our street while I handed out candy. We ended up having 96 trick-or-treaters come to our door, and we gave out almost all of our candy.


"Show me all your candy!!!"



And here's Jack trying to decide which piece to have before putting all the candy away for the night. Such a decision!!!



Jayden had some M&M's and Jack had a peanut butter cup as they "calmed down" while watching Caillou.



Daddy's Pumpkin.

The boys did really great and had lots of fun. It took a little while to get them both settled down at bedtime. But then we all slept really good :) And Jack woke up this morning and said "can we go trick-or-treating again today?" Too bad we have to wait until next year....
