It was fun while it lasted though! Liam dressed up as Nemo and Chloe as Madeline.
My mother-in-law stayed at our house on Halloween so she could hand out candy while we took Liam trick or treating (it was too cold and windy for Chloe to go with us, so we left her with Nana). Liam actually "got" the whole concept of trick-or-treating this year (unlike last year) so he thought it was pretty cool.
We only lasted a 1/2 an hour outside, but when we got back home he loved handing out candy to the 400+ kids (just like last year). His patience and diligence surprised me. He plopped a piece of candy in the bags of each each ghost and Elsa and zombie, totally unfazed by the creepiness of some of the costumes. That's my boy :)
We attended a Halloween party on Friday night after trick or treat was done, as well as hosted a couple of friends & their kids to an outdoor treasure hunt/tiny pumpkin decorating/chicken noodle soup eating affair at our home on Saturday night.
Will bellies full of too much candy & cookies, I'd say Halloween 2014 was a success.
I didn't get around to posting a photo of the kids in their costumes on Facebook (and I've had a few requests to see photos) so here they are:
Liam liked the guts. He liked the smell of them too.
(Personally, I think pumpkin guts smell like barf.)
"Madeline"
"Nemo"
My pumpkin, Matt/Liam's pumpkin, Chloe's pumpkin.
At our neighbor's house - see the eyes in the windows?
Liam and his friend, Cole.
And a few photos from the little gathering we had at our house.
I hope you all enjoyed your extra hour of insert whatever you did here this weekend!
