Happy Halloween!!

November 4, 2009

I know I’m a few days late. LOL We had a lot of fun on Halloween. The boys were so excited about getting dressed up! They talked about it all day. We went trick or treating in our old neighborhood with our friends, the Heath’s. The boys had so much fun and didn’t want to stop!

Our trek to the first house…they weren’t there.

Next we went to the Kersh’s house. It was good to see Kim. She loved all the kids’ costumes:)

Can you tell the difference between the boys?!! I barely can with their costumes on. LOL

This house was decorated really well! There were cobwebs everywhere! and tombstones in the yard. It was pretty cool!

A funny fact about Jonas: Whenever he would go up to a house instead of saying “trick or treat” he would say “Trick or Treater!” I thought that was cute!:)

Our old next door neighbors, the Cardon’s. They make really awesome doughnuts and they had some fresh ones that night that they shared with us. MMMMmmm!! They’re SO GOOD!!

I thought it was cute that Libby was sitting on the steps waiting for us to come inside. When I went over to take a picture she bent over and started crying.

The poor girl was traumatized by me taking a picture of her. That never happens!! LOL

So I tried again once she calmed down and we got inside:)

Then she realized what I was doing…

Dustin tried to take the kids’ candy away from them. They had fun letting him chase them around the house.

Brynnan gave Mark his pumpkin to protect it from Dustin. I think, it was in more danger with Mark:)

After saying good-bye to the Heath’s we had to trick or Treat at Dylan’s house. Jonas LOVES my friend Karlenn’s son, Dylan. He’s about a year and a half older than Jonas. I don’t know why Jonas loves him so much. I don’t think Dylan really likes him and I don’t mean that in a mean way,  Dylan is just a lot older than Jonas. With kids you can see the gap more than when you’re adults. I warned Jonas that Dylan probably wouldn’t be home because he might be out trick or treating. I was right. Dylan’s Dad answered the door all dressed up. I was going to say hi to him and let him know it was us, but the boys got their candy and were off! So I didn’t get a chance to say hi. Great job on your costume, though, Ben! It was scary!:) And look at all those pumpkins!! They look great! We didn’t carve pumpkins and I wish we had. Oh, well.

After a few more houses on Dylan’s block we went home. The boys got to eat one piece of candy. Brynnan’s candy of choice is in the above picture:) Jonas had a twix, which is the ONLY candy he will eat. I don’t know why! LOL The boys went to bed around 8 and I stayed upstairs working on pictures and handed out candy to the 5 groups that came by our house! Yes, that’s all. Apparently our house didn’t look very halloweenish so therefor it wasn’t inviting. I’m not so good at the decorating part of having a house, at least on the outside. I guess there’s always next year, but really it was ok that we didn’t have that many Trick or Treaters. More candy for us! I spent the rest of the night eating tootsie rolls and pops! UGH! Hope you all had a fun halloween!

  1. That was a fun night. I’m glad you guys came with us.

    Am I allowed to say that I think my butt looks big in that pic with the Cardon’s?


  2. LOL I was actually thinking that it looks pretty good. I hope that doesn’t sound creepy!! Hehe


  3. I love getting to see the boys in their costumes — even if it’s only by way of pictures. Thanks for being a great Photographer, Megan! I think the boys and the costumes look so cute! Mark did a great job of decorating them. And I’m glad to see how much the boys loved being dressed up in them, too!


  4. Heyyyy, I didn’t know you came to my house! I’m sad I missed you! Ben is such a dork. He had so much fun scaring people. He even made a few kids cry. He is already talking about next year. I kept telling him to keep the inside lights on, because when I took the kids out, if someone’s lights weren’t on, we assumed they weren’t home, and we didn’t trick-or-treat there. But he insisted on it staying dark, to complete the scary effect. He’s so weird.
