Trick or Treat...Smell My Feet!!

The air was cool, the kids were excited and that made for a perfect night of trick or treating. Everyone around here got together for pizza and the old tradition of Trick or Treating through the neighborhood. We missed having the Whites with us this year, but Ava and Stefan did a good job filling their shoes. It's so nice to have them here with us now. Next year Jackie and Baby Blum will be joining us...thankfully!! The girls stockpiled candy and had a blast doing it. This was the first year Kelsey really participated. By the end of the night, her Piglet costume was coming unbuttoned and she was dragging herself, and her bag of goodies, to the last few doors. She was so much fun to watch...absolutely innocent and completely excited!! When we got home, it was business as usual. We started a fire, put a blanket out on the floor, dumped all the candy in to a pile, and feasted on sweets while we watched "It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown". By the end of the hour, the kids were on a sugar high, but it had no chance at overcoming the sheer exhaustion of running from door to door through the neighborhood. We carried them upstairs and they were asleep before their heads hit the pillows. And we were right behind them...just as tired!!
