Trick or Treat

It's hard to believe that all of the Halloween festivities are finally over. We had a very fun Halloween evening...here's a little recap. The kids took good naps in the afternoon, woke up, got in their costumes and came outside. Jared had been on a bike ride, so they both wanted to sit on the bike.

Then both sets of grandparents came over and we all headed down to the neighborhood pizza party. Jackson insisted on pulling Maddie in the wagon. It was slow going for a while!


At the neighborhood get-together, they also had a costume contest. Madison won Cutest Costume!

Jackson really had no interest in any of the festivities until it was time to go get the candy. Then he fell right in line! Even though he only said "trick or treat" one time, he practiced a lot. We would leave one house where he had been as quiet as a church mouse and he'd say "I'll say it at the next house." We'd get there and nothing again! Oh well...maybe next year:)

After we collected a lot of candy, we all headed back to our house for some yummy pumpkin cake that we made earlier that day. Then it was time for mom and dad to get ready for the adult par-tay. Even though we didn't get to go to the party on his bike, we still got some cute pics beforehand.

The party was so fun--here's our group. We've got a spider girl, tin man, scarecrow, angel, devil, us and the couple from Mad Men. There were so many good costumes!

Thanks Jenny for such a fun party!
