Trick or Treat

We took the kids downtown on Saturday to do some trick or treating. We were preparing the girls for the next day. At first they were a little hesitant. Finally they grabbed each others hands and were dancing down the street holding their buckets up and saying trick or treat. Once they turned around they kept yelling BYE!! It was so cute to watch them.

On Sunday they wore their costumes almost all day. They kept chanting LADY BUG, LADY BUG!! They love their costumes, so we let the kids wear them while they were shopping. It was cute to see the girls walking down the aisles holding hands and Trevor (Buzz) right next to them herding them along the way. That night Trevor was running excitedly to each house. His sisters slowed him down so he went with Daddy while the girls and I went a much slower pace. The girls held onto each other as they went up each step, knocked on the door until someone answered it, held up their buckets and said trick or treat. Sometimes they stood their waiting for more. Once they turned away they would say bye Halloween. After a few houses the girls rode in the wagon while Trevor gathered more candy.

We brought the kids back home to pass out candy. Trevor's friend TJ came over so we went out with him for a little while. During that time the girls stayed home with daddy and passed out candy. The girls stayed in their costumes and were being cute everytime someone came to the door. They would say trick or treat, then as the kids left they yelled bye, until the other kids answered back. Trev had so much fun trick or treating with his friend. He ran from house to house I think we did as many houses in 30 minutes with his friend as we did in over the hour we were out previous with the girls.

Now to find something to do with all this candy. I think we will see if the kids want to trade in their candy for the new Toy Story 3 movie coming out.
