Trick or Treat

This was a fun year Trick or Treating with the kids. They were really into the candy--especially Caleb!! Some friends of ours (Tim & Chrystal) came over with their daughters Allison and Molly to go Trick or Treating with us. The kids would all run up to the door and be yelling Trick or Treat before they even knocked. Then they would all do these little knocks and yell Trick or Treat.

So as we went to more houses their baskets were almost overflowing with candy. Chloe gave hers up with pleasure to Grandma Patti. Chloe said it was too heavy and she would only hold it to go up to houses and get more candy then she would hand it back to Grandma Patti. Caleb on the other hand--- I offered to hold his basket and he would say no, no, no, I carry myself. And if you tried to remove any of the candy to make the basket lighter he just about threw himself down on the ground. So I got lucky-- he dropped his basket one time and when he wasn't looking I grabbed 2 big handfuls and shoved them in my pockets to lighten his load. When we got back to our house I was able to unload the candy directly into our bowl for trick or treaters.

We went out early enough we were even able to make a visit over to Papa Klus & Grandma Klus's house. (great grandparents) So they got to see the kids in their costumes, and the kids got more candy. I think we're gonna take some of it as snacks to the Beaver game tomorrow night.

That's all for now. And I think I am all caught up on pictures. Below- Caleb, Molly, Allison and Chloe in their costumes. Caleb is a train Engineer or conductor and Chloe is of course BUZZ LIGHTYEAR!!

That's so funny! Cam has the same engineer outfit.. He wore it to our Halloween party. It's just good that our kids mommies have such great taste!
