Halloween 2013

We had such a fun Halloween this year.  Even though the girls don't really know what's coming or anticipate things yet, they totally get what is going on.

We started our Halloween on Monday night by going through a practice run of trick or treating.  We got fruit snacks and Shane went into a bedroom.  We knocked on the door and practiced saying Trick or Treat and then Thank you, walked away and repeated.  I wish I had pictures of this because seriously it was so funny. Siena screamed laughed every time we would knock on the door and Shane would answer it.  They thought this was the funniest game ever invented.  So we felt pretty confident that they were going to enjoy Trick or Treating.

Wednesday we carved pumpkins...well I carved pumpkins.  And like last year, Siena tried to take a bite of the pumpkin.  I gave her an eye I had cut out and she totally licked it and took a small bite...yuck!


Halloween morning we invited Holland, Max and Owen to come over and play.  They all wore their costumes and had a fun morning.  We did a little pumpkin craft, watched a Halloween Micky Mouse club episode and had lunch.  It was so fun and it was fun watching them all play and interact with each other.



That night we got all ready for Trick or Treating.  We had planned to only go to 5 or 6 houses but in the end the girls were having so much fun that we ended going to about 15 or so.  In between houses they kept taking candy out of their bucket and handing it to me asking me to open it.  And of course they looked so cute that they were a hit at every house we went to.  Even Jaron was as cute as can be.  Afterwards we came home and passed out candy and the girls had a fun time handing out candy as well, in between eating some of theirs.  I re-passed out some of their candy just to get rid of it since I knew some of it they wouldn't eat.  Holidays with these girls sure are getting so much more fun.
