First up was book character day!
Then I got to help with pumpkin math in Grady's first grade class! And I got to go back and be the mystery reader later in the day.
We had mummy hot dogs for dinner (crescent roll wrapped around a hot dog and baked). So easy when trying to get everyone out the door! Mills was less than impressed to be a lion for the 12th year in a row.
Half devil/half angel to match the girls next door and a dinosaur.
Our neighbors roof was getting replaced ha.
With Connor and Paisley!
Ms. Suzanne always has the cutest set up and loves the children.
Trick or treating by way of golf cart is cheating but we do it anyway!
And all of our buddies in the hood had theirs out. Or a Polaris like some! ;)
Best part of the night was Grady begging me to go to one specific house that he knew about. They had a super long chute that they put the candy down in. I ran him over there while Molly Anne counted and swapped candy next door. He got two full size Twix bars and he flipped out he was so happy. It made the homeowners night too! It was joyous and what Halloween is all about!
And yes Grady had a costume change midway through the evening because he was soooo sweaty as a dinosaur. Allllll of the candy! Soooo much.
And alllll of my pumpkins are down inside and the pumpkins on our front porch are going to be history when trash gets picked up next.
Also, I never carved pumpkins with my kids or took them to a pumpkin patch this year. Just ran out of time and it didn't happen. They didn't seem to care and honestly I don't think they noticed. So maybe we shouldn't put all of this pressure on ourselves all of the time?!
