Trick or Treat!


For as long as we've been married, we have participated in a trunk-or-treat in one state or another each Halloween. This year was our families first door-to-door experience. The weather was perfect! Warm, calm, and beautiful! (I love this time of year--fall colors, crisp air, holiday countdowns, warm drinks, hot soups, and Christmas music!) We walked around Bridgeport subdivision and enjoyed every bit! I love that my children are all still young enough to enjoy Halloween. Gage loved the glowing jackolanterns best. Steven and Ashley were most concerned about how full their bags were getting. Avery was the trailer--always had to wait for her to bring up the rear! She was in NO hurry at all! (She dressed as a Dolphin) We had a wonderful evening together--especially with Grandma, Grandpa, and Uncle Mike! Usually the Great Pumpkin comes after kids go to sleep and exchanges candy for books. He didn't come this year. What's the deal? So, our sugar fest continues--sure tastes good!

Good for you dressing up! Little BO Peep? I miss you after looking at your cute family pictures. If you come around let me know. I would even go to blackfoot. Your family is beautiful.

Stephanie,
Your blog looks so great! You have totally figured the art of blogging. All the pictures look awesome. I love that you dressed up as Bo Peep. It was fun running into you trick or treating. Your kids' costumes were very cute.

What a fun Halloween for you! Thanks for all the ideas about costumes and candy. I could use all the help I can get! You make a darling Little Bo Peep! How fun for you and your kids that you were able to spend Halloween with your parents. Will you please, please tell me how you put captions on your picture collages/mosaics? Do you use Picasa 3? I would love use captions but haven't figured it out.
