First Halloween in the new House!

Halloween was awesome this year! We bought a car from a pirate, got tons of trick-or-treaters and had pretty empty gym for some climbing. This was our first year with trick-or-treaters and we did not want to be known as the house with bad or not enough candy so we bought $50 worth of candy and were ready at 5:30 for some kids. 

Crosby dressed up in her usual Halloween Costume.

 

We decided to sit out on the porch because we were expecting a lot of kids and the doorbell would have driven Crosby crazy. We were sitting out there at 5:30 and started getting nervous that our neighborhood wasn't a big trick-or-treating neighborhood because we didn't get any activity until about 6:30 but once it started it was non-stop!

I think the most popular costumes this year were ninjas, pirates, and Elsa. We also had a very pissed off ninja turtle who kicked our bushes when I didn't know which turtle he was. And my favorite over-enthusiastic Elsa who wiped out two driveways in a row because she was so excited. 

At 8:30 we finally set a bucket of candy out on the front steps and left to go climbing in an almost empty gym. It was a fun day. Next year we're going to follow our friends Kevin and Meredith's lead and take a tally of the costumes that come by.

Crosby will be waiting patiently for next year!
