Happy Halloween!

By the time Halloween arrived, I felt like it already passed with our busy Halloween week/weekend.  But, we carried on and did the mandatory Halloween things and it was a beautiful day/evening for it!

 family pics...so bummed I didn't have a neighbor get one of all 4 of us :(

Laney was along for the ride, literally.  We stuck her car seat in the wagon and she happily tagged along.
 Trick-or-Treating the neighborhood.  This costume really slowed the kid down...he moved at the pace of a snail and drug his candy bag the whole time.  Of course Dad and Mom were not allowed to touch!
 He was trick-or-treating with neighborhood friends, but his snail like speed put us at the end of the pack.  After we circled our block, Coop and Dad sat outside and handed out candy.  We think he liked this part even more than trick-or-treating.  Our neighborhood was swarming with kids...we ran out of candy embarrassingly early!
His bag at the end of the night after dragging it down the sidewalk.  He walked in, handed it to me, the candy spilled out and he said, "uh-oh."  Then proceeded to pick it all up, just to have it empty as fast as he was putting it in.  He could have cared less, totally over it!  Funny thing is, he didn't seem to make any connection with the candy and eating it.  He just liked going door to door and collecting it.  He maybe had 2 pieces.  I am sure it will be a totally different story next year!  What I didn't eat, I donated to the local elementary school, they were doing a candy drive for less fortunate kiddos.

Hope you all had the happiest of Halloweens!  Now, onto turkey time!
