Halloween All Day!



Halloween was a busy day around here...but SO much fun! Landon's school had a parade and small party time. The parade was the greatest thing ever...for Landon. He thought he was hot stuff getting to show off his costume to the older kids. Claire's party was later. They also did a costume parade, which was a massive event considering 750 kids plus all the teachers and aides participated! Claire had fun at her party wrapping mummy's and making frames. We came home to rest for a little bit before heading to a neighbor's house for dinner. Then the group of kiddos there went on their very important excursion to get candy. Landon lasted for about 45 minutes, but Claire kept with it for a long time. After going through the loot, we headed into the culdesac across the street for some hot chocolate and play time (work off those sugar highs!) with more neighbors before heading to bed. Both kids understood the point of the holiday and participated this year; which made the parent's job of following them around a bigger treat than candy. Watching those faces light up and giggle as they said "trick or treat" was the best!
