Halloween Adventures

We had a stress-free run-of-the-mill halloween. We had fun hanging out at the house during the day, then had our traditional chili dinner, and after dinner the kids got all dressed up and we took them trick-or-treating around the neighborhood. We have always done things like trunk-or-treats in the past, so we thought it would be fun to take the kids around the neighborhood for a change. We had a great time!

The kids were so cute when we went trick-or-treating. At most houses they would say "trick-or-treat" so quietly no one could hear them. Then suddenly at one house they both yelled really loudly "trick-or-treat, smell my feet". The lady was laughing.
At one of the first houses we went to the kids got the large-size juice boxes. They totally weighed down their halloween pumpkin buckets, so we had to help them carry them the rest of the way. They mostly got regular candy, but we did get a free movie rental too!

Rylee would get a little impatient waiting at the door. We would ring the doorbell and wait a few seconds, then she would yell "I'll get it" and start opening the door.

Of course we had to stop by aunt Margaret's house too, because she lives in our neighborhood. The girls were so excited to see her. They LOVE aunt Margaret!

After trick-or-treating we went to Aunt Tammy's house to trick-or-treat and visit for a minute, and then to Grandma Wales' house. Tammy is hilariouis, she would have a bowl full of fun-size candy bars, and when groups of kids came to the door she would give all of the bigger kids a fun-size candy, then she would give the smallest kid this giant size Kit Kat. All of the other kids faces would drop. It was so funny to watch!

Rylee LOVES her candy, so she of course could not wait to dump it out on Grandma's floor to see what she got. She opened one piece after the other without finishing any of them.

We hung out at Grandma's house for quite a while, then visited Dave & Kay to show off our costumes over there too. Here are the rest of our pictures:
