We had the best Halloween this year. I'd say the best we've had in years. Spencer wanted to go with his friends, and so we sent Bill's old cellphone with him and let him go alone for the first time ever. He was so thrilled.
My two nieces and brother-in-law came up and we made pizza and then went trick or treating together and we also picked up our neighbor friends as we headed out, so we had about ten of us. So fun. The neighborhood we're in is just the right size for trick or treating. The houses are close enough together that it's not all walking. The weather was lovely. The kids didn't even wear coats, though they were freezing by the time they got home. We had caramel apples to finish off the night and it was awesome.
Chloe could keep up. That was one of the best parts. She was practically leading out and they all knew how to say trick or treat and thank you and it just was so easy and pleasant. There were lots of houses that had unique ways of passing out candy to be safer. It really was just nice all around. I loved just going through our neighborhood instead of doing a downtown businesses sort of trick or treating like we have done in recent years. Nice to just be simple and easy and fun.
Grandpa helped us carve pumpkins to start the day.
