Its been AGES since I’ve posted anything on here. I really need to get better about this. At least for the sake of my kids!
Happy Halloween!
2017 brought us Marty McFly, a Skeleton from Minecraft, Rey from Star Wars, and a Chicken! Halloween fell on a Tuesday this year so the kids were able to go Trick-or-Treating twice! The Trunk-or-Treat and ward party were the previous Saturday and it went really well. There were a ton of families parked to hand out candy and the chili cook off inside afterwards was a perfectly delicious way to end the evening. Gwen won a prize for her awesome costume too. Travis invited his friend Greg from school and his family and they came. It was so fun to spend some time with them.
On Halloween night, we took the kids around the neighborhood. Not everyone in our neighborhood participates in handing out candy but enough do to make it worth it. We walked for about an hour and 1/2 but once the kids started to get tired, we headed home. Aubrey was so cute; she was bundled in the stroller for the first two houses and then realized what was happening every time the older kids knocked on doors – they received CANDY! She was in it to win it after that. She had a blast and really enjoyed Halloween this year. Only one person knew exactly who Travis was and a lot of people asked if we bribed Enoch to dress up as Marty. They were truly surprised to hear that it was his idea and also, his favorite movie.
Halloween 2017 was most definitely an awesome night, enjoyed by all. I felt bad for their teachers the next day! Candy hangovers GALORE! Happy Halloween!
