Happy Halloween


Happy Halloween! Ours was great! Parties, candy, and great weather. Bekah had a preschool party on Thurs., the library did something Friday in the morning, and then the Trunk or Treat was Friday night. We were royalty this Halloween... as it may be the last year we can coordinate. Next year Kyle may not be so pliant. Ahh... I love toddlers!

Bekah was a princess, Kyle a knight in shining armor (he really just loved the sword), Daddy a king, and I was a fairy godmother. My neighbor lent me the dress... and it was pink poof. A couple little girls came up and just stood awestruck in front of me, wistfully stroking the dress. The next morning my neighbor's little girl asked (again!) "Can you put on the pretty dress?"

It was fun to have my parents and Rob's dad over for the trunk or treat. After returning home for dinner-in-a-pumpkin, Rob headed out with the kids for more (I think dad's go for this because of the candy), and then we spent the evening at my neighbor's house. The kids just ran around in their sugar-induced frenzy (no you cannot just eat cookies for dinner) while the adults just talked. The next morning, my kids woke up, and like 80% of American kids, the first words out of their mouths were, "Can I have some candy?"

Oh you are such a cute royal couple. We are hoping you are all going to be wearing this for the castle party tomorrow!
