Our little munchkins out gathering candy. Alyssa was a black cat, Matthew was a pirate, Josh was a pumpkin & Grace was an Olympic gymnast.
It was such a beautiful night so we went out trick-or-treating and ended up pretty much filling up our candy buckets. Grace, my niece was with us. We had a fun time. Pumpkin Josh pretty much hung out in his stroller eating a sucker almost the whole time. He looked like a very plump, relaxed pumpkin! The other three were running from house to house, complaining about how heavy their bags were getting with candy! Can't say I was too sympathetic.
I think the tally, at least for the girls, was about 100 pieces of candy, a toy & some McDonalds coupons. Sorry Jenn - Grace is bringing all hers home!! :-) They will have fun choosing candy for a couple of days, then it'll go in the cupboard for "sugar" days, I'll freeze some of the chocolate for later & eventually the candy will just "disappear" - just like last year!
I definitely got my exercise today - between raking & walking around our neighborhood. I always feel bad for my neighbors because they don't get a lot of trick-or-treaters so we try to do our part (and for some it's one of the only times I get to talk to my neighbors! Of course, that's how we got so much candy too! :-)
