The haul.

Well, the first part.

Here's the boys enjoying the one piece of candy I let them have from their buckets after the trunk or treat. After I wouldn't let them have another piece they insisted on taking the buckets to bed with them (I did put lids on them). We will see what happens when they get limited tomorrow to only one piece.

Getting all dressed up

for candy, that is.

Cookie Monster and Elmo were a big hit at the ward trunk or treat. And they did stand still for a moment. As you can see the photo shoot went downhill fast:

Though they still looked really cute at the end of the party. They didn't wear those head pieces for very long though.

Oh, the irony

This year's halloween get-ups. Both are repeat costumes. Blanket wore the tiger costume I got for Tiger when he was a baby, and Tiger is Charlie Brown for the second year in a row.

I'm not a big halloween fan, but I do enjoy dressing up my children in cute costumes while they are too young to protest. Tiger likes candy, and was all about the trick or treat thing for the candy. We share it : Tiger gets one, Mom gets one, Dad gets one.

I liked the weather this year. It was about 60 degrees and light at 6 pm when we went out. The other two years we were here it was 25 degrees and 35 degrees at trick or treat time.
