Trick or Treat

We spent Halloween with relatives this year and it was so much fun. My kids were so excited and constantly asked when we were going down for Halloween.

Appleseed had a harder time than normal for some reason and cried a teeny bit. Poor thing. Otherwise he was very good and just sat in the stroller looking at all the kids.We went to a carnival at the Elementary there. It was the biggest carnival and so cheap. We had a blast and the kids all came away with tons of prizes. Here we are playing the fishing game.
Butterball wanted to go ride the bouncy slide outside. When I told him "Not yet." he kicked me so I wouldn't let him play the next game and he had to sit in time out.Here is our cousin M playing a game where you had to dig in some "boogers" to get out some eyeballs. I kept telling Butterbean that it was real boogers. She was so disgusted and while she was in line kept saying to herself, "Be brave. Be brave."Butterball had this adorable disgusted face the whole time he was digging in the "boogers".A picture of all of us together. M made her costume with her Mom. It was very pretty.Later we went trick or treating. My kids have never really done it where you go from house to house. After about house 5 Butterball was done. He kept saying he wanted to go back to 'E' which was the town we were in. I kept telling him we were there already but I think to him 'E' means his Grandparents house. Funny. So he just sat on the curve and ate some candy while the girls went trick or treating. I ended up carrying him for a bit and would ask him if he wanted me to take him up to the house and he would say no. He ended up with probably 1/4 of the candy his sister had but he could have cared less. Butterbean ended up crying and saying she wanted to go home so we ended it early. Later after she had "rested" she went out with her cousin M again.It was a wonderful time. Thanks to our families for helping make it so great.
