The Trick or Treaters that Finally Went


So the first few years, Boy Howdy didn't want to have anything to do with costumes or trick or treating. He loved dumping handfuls of candy in other's bags but didn't want to get his own. I made my peace with it. Last year though, he really caught on to the whole idea but with our torrential downpour, there was no trickstering going on around the neighborhood. Finally, four years after birth, the stars aligned and we made it out. 

Boy Howdy has been deciding on a costume for the last three months (at least), thankfully he decided on just about the most low-key option possible. You want to be a ghost? Yes sir, we can make that happen for you!

Cheeks, from day one, wanted to be a minion and enthusiastically informed anyone who asked of her decision.

Thankfully, both children were happy with what I came up for their ensambles. And greatfully the weather was clear and mild, there were no tears walking around the hills of our neighborhood and they were more than happy with their four piece of candy limit before going to bed. Wonderful evening!!
