Happy Halloween

Getting ready for "Trunk or Treat" at church. The boys weren't too sure about it. There weren't any doorbells to ring and we weren't in our neighborhood. But they quickly learned that sometimes change is a good thing!

Hannah is the last little lion.

Jonathan at 20 months in 2009. And Ben and Cate wore this costume also. Sadly, I can't find a photo of them as little lions to post here.

The Whites, our awesome neighbors, gave the kids super treats and the kids all came home and dumped their bags to check out their loot.

Andrew scored a cool game-controller calculator!

Halloween was nice and warm - in the 60s, perfect weather for trick or treating. This year, since Halloween was on a Wednesday, our church had a Trunk-or-Treat event. We had never participated in this, but it was great. A bunch of familiar faces and friends giving candy to your kids in the church parking lot. Fast and efficient!

The boys have been looking forward to this night since October began and it didn't take Hannah long to figure out the trick-or-treating game. It went something like this: Walk up to strangers, smile shyly and they give me my CHOICE of candy!
