Halloween

Yep, that picture says it all! The kids were silly and ready to go trick or treating...forget posing for pictures, Momma!
Me with my precious little Superman and my precious little Snow White.

Our WONDERFUL neighbors with our kiddos. This was our first stop and our kids were right at home. As soon as the door was opened, they just went right on in! I think the kids had a bucket full just after that one stop! (These are the neighbors that Mackenzie has claimed as an additional set of grandparents!)


I felt bad for Josiah as at the very next stop, when the door opened, he went right on in...as we had in the picture above...but since we didn't know the people this time, we were retrieving him. I think he was embarrassed as he just thought we were supposed to go inside. He tries so hard to do things just the right way, just like Mackenzie does, except he's still little enough that he doesn't remember last year or the proper etiquette! I tried to explain things better before our next stop so he could enjoy it without being embarrassed.
David and Josiah.
Mackenzie and Josiah knocking on the next door.

This is one of my favorite pictures from Halloween night. We were barely inside our own front door when the two of them sat down on the stairs, with the buckets by their sides, and began to enjoy their loot!

They look adorable. I thought about you guys several times on Friday remembering the last couple of years of trick or treating together. It honestly wasn't the same this year.

Laura really loved that Mackenzie was Snow White! She immediately went to find her Snow White dress up costume and put it on!

I LOVE that last picture. It has 'oncoming sugar coma' written all over it!

I love the pictures but especially the last one. They almost look dazed.

They certainly look like they had a great time - great pictures.

Mackenzie, You are beautiful in your costume. I hope you had a good time. We had a good time, too, but it was not the same without you. Love, Abby

Great pictures! That's so funny about Josiah going in the door-this happened with Jackson last year and this year we caught Chandler Grace just in time to stop her!
