trick or treat....

halloween. i hate to say it, but i almost dread it next year. this year, we got off pretty easy.

i mean, the kids had fun, but they are still little enough that eight or so houses on our block was enough walking (in those giant costumes) and seemed like a ton of candy (i will admit, they are pretty candy deprived children....) so we were able to head back to the house by 7:30, and then we all passed out candy till about nine.....

next year will be a different story (i fear). something tells me that one block won't be enough...and passing out candy will probably not be seen as fun as trick or treating....

here are the kids getting ready to go....(yes, you are seeing that right...little mama is french fries and the boy is a hamburger) thanks to aunt e for helping us find our (wonderful) costumes!!!!

the very best part about the whole experience was watching the boy fall down. i know, i am a terrible mom, but when he would flop over in his costume...well, he looked alot like a frustrated turtle...and he would holler "stuck, stuck, stuck"....
