Halloween Continues....

Halloween Day was full of fun. We went to the party at the library, braved WalMart and KMart to find some last minute Halloween needs, and then got to decorate the trunk and go trunk r Treating. Our friends Adam and Brigitte came with their 2 boys, Owen and Noah and Shaun and Emily came with little baby bat Lincoln. I didn't get a picture of Noah or Lincoln, but they were so cute. Here's the trunk r treaters getting ready to go! It looks like they are fighting over the candy bucket, but they are just holding hands. There is no fighting on Halloween!
Adam took Ava and Owen around to stake out the trunks.

Here is Ava with her "Elmo Purse" as she calls it...she LOVED the dum dums. She always had one in her mouth and so she wouldn't say trick r treat. We practiced so hard too!

After they got all thier candy they got in the trunk and ate too much candy! Ava took a little nibble of each kind and then throw it down and try another piece. We had a huge pile of nibbled candy by the end.




These kids loved thier candy! I had to confiskate (sp?) it from Ava. She wasn't too happy about that, but this morning she doesn't even remember all that candy she had last night....Next year she will probably want to eat it all for breakfast!

Well, it's so fun to hear about your Halloween adventures! And how appropriate it is for Ava to be a little monkey! What a cutie! And no surprise to me that she's already got a 'boyfriend'!
We had only 2 trick or treaters (one who looked at me and said "I did'nt know my music teacher lived in my neighborhood!") until the Andrews showed up about 8:30 with all five of their kids! They trippled our count of visitors! And Dad filled their buckets with almost all of our candy! SCORE! But we missed you guys! Thanks for the pictures and the stories!
