Trick or Treat, smell my feet......


We ended this Halloween season with our grand finale of Trunk or Treat.

This year Megan went as Sleeping Beauty. Really any princess costume works for her and she had her choice of about five different princesses. She really wanted to go as Ariel but they were all sold out so Sleeping Beauty was her second choice because the costume was pink and that is her favorite color. Gotta love the reasoning huh? She got to dress up for her class Halloween party and loved it. She came home on the bus wearing it and telling me what her classmates wore. There were 3 princesses in her class.

Andrew wasn't really all that interesting in picking out a costume so we looked at our choices and when we saw spiderman that was it. Andrew loves and I mean loves spiderman. Once he saw the costume he wouldn't put it down and couldn't wait to try it on. Andrew has gotten in his costume several times before the actual trick or treating just to wear it around the house. He tries to climb the walls and jumps around acting like spiderman. As I'm typing this blog he has currently put his costume back on. I'm not sure what we will do as the days go on the costume is pretty snug to begin with. We did try to hide it once and he was so sad and walked around the house saying "spi-er-ma gone spi-er-ma gone"

At trunk or treat I sat with a friend and passed out candy while Jeff took the kids around to get the loot. Andrew was a live wire as always but for the first time he actually went around to each car and said trick or treat to get candy. This was a huge step for us but we still need to work on our manners and not trying to grab the candy ourselves. He was all over the place but did stick with the group. One small step at a time. Megan was a champ as always and had a great time. She is coming down with a bit of a cold so was a bit tired after all was said and done.
