Trick or Treating!

I can't seem to add my words to the picture post so I'll summarize Halloween here.

The girls were super excited to go trick or treating this year. We did some practice at our house and at Oma's so that they knew to say "trick or treat" and made sure to practice thanking people. They did a great job with that and not taking handfuls of candy when presented with the bowl. I was very proud of them! Early on in the evening, a man waved as they were leaving and said, "Happy Halloween" to the girls. From that point forward, every time Keeley left a house she would turn over her shoulder as she was leaving, wave, and say, "Thank you. Happy Halloween!!" It was adorable. We took the wagon this year since Kelly ended up carrying both the girls home last year. Next year we need to take their water bottles too because Kayden kept asking for water. After about 30 or 45 minutes of trick or treating, Keeley climbed in the wagon and said, "We have enough candy. That's it guys. Let's go home." She did hop out a couple times on the way home for a few more stops, but she really was done.

They loved digging into their candy that night and the next few nights but quickly forgot about it. I think since we don't ever eat candy, it made their tummies hurt, which ruined some of the fun! It'll be fun to see what next year is like since they enjoyed it so much this year.
