Halloween Eve

I really, really love Halloween. REALLY. I loved it before having kids and actually trick-or-treated all the way through high school, because hey? It's free candy. I always wore a costume and was always polite, of course, so in case you're wondering (you weren't), I always give polite, costumed teenagers as much candy as I would a three year old.
ANYWAY, this year, we trick or treated two nights in a row. Saturday night, a nearby town was having trick or treating, so we stopped by the houses of our very good friends who live there. Since I already posted pictures from Halloween, I thought I'd share a few from the night before.
Tommy wasn't so sure about his costume at first, but it kept him warm and happy.

When the first trick or treaters came, Tommy raced to stand behind Shane's Uncle Joel (first stop on our list) to watch him pass out candy.

Luke decided he wanted to be a pirate almost a year ago and so he was THRILLED to finally put on his pirate costume Saturday night. Isn't he the best pirate ever?

What sweet pictures! My baby girl RUSHED to watch/help hand out candy too.

Also (not that YOU asked) I hand out candy to polite costumed high school kids too. But the ones who show up with no costume and are rude? NO CANDY FOR YOU! :)
