Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween! It was a great but busy day. The kids are in bed and Cary and I have eaten way too much candy.

Garrett and Daddy went for a little farm visit to allow Kelsey to nap (which never happened!!). Garrett is in love with this little calf and was very excited to find it in the goat pen where he could go in and pet it.

After an unsuccessful nap attempt we headed over to the mall to do some trick-or-treating. Garrett and Kelsey were adorable in their matching dragon costumes and got quite a few admiring glances and smiles. Kelsey walked around like she owned the place and handed people her open bag waiting for treats.

After collecting bags full of treats both kids couldn't wait to sit down and eat some of their loot. Would you believe that the first thing both kids wanted to eat was the orange?

After dinner Garrett and I went trick-or-treating. He did great! He didn't get nervous at all and we encountered some very scary houses. He even thanked people and said, "Happy Halloween!" I was very proud.

After dumping out and examining his goodies Garrett was allowed to eat what we considered a reasonable amount. After he was told that he had enough this is where we found him sitting quietly. Take a guess as to what he was doing behind the couch?? He was sneaking candy!!!! Where does a 2 year old learn to sneak candy?? Yikes!

We had a delicious dinner (thanks to Uncle Dean and Aunty Meghan) and the kids were ready for bed. Okay, Kelsey wasn't but we were ready for the kids to be in bed. This is Kelsey's "cheese" face.

One tired bumblebee.

    Our neighborhood no longer has kids ... we had no little munchkins! Oh well, I guess we will just have to eat all that candy.
