Halloween!

We don't get too crazy about Halloween in this house.  I don't mind it aside from all the candy it brings into our house but I kind of lack enthusiasm about it too.  Sorry kids!

We did go trick-or-treating both at Erik's school (last week) and through the neighborhood (halloween).  Erik and Lainey both had Halloween "parties" at school.

Lainey's preschool is really good about not having junk at school so there was no food at her party.  After the party was over Lainey came up and asked me, " Mommy, can we go to the party now?"  Apparently, the absence of cake and cookies meant it wasn't a real party. Ha!

Erik came home covered in blue all over his hands, shirt, pants, face.  I honestly thought he had done some kind of craft project or painting.  Come to find out all the blue was from a cupcake he had gotten at his party.  Excellent. Ugh!

Anyway, here is a cute photo of our sweet trick-or-treaters  (Our candy from halloween is GONE. I donated it all along with 6-7 old jackets to a friend who took a carload of things up to the shelters in New Jersey.)

Carson LOVED trick-or-treating and kept pointing at houses we hadn't visited yet.  
I am so thankful to be a mom and have sweet babies to go trick-or-treating with!
