Dad Saves Halloween!

On Halloween, October31st, the kids got to wear their costumes to school.

Above is Maddie and her best friend Brendan after school. He was an astronaut too, under that coat!

To the right is Emma, Max B., and Maddie.



I was really sick today, so I was not sure if I would be able to take the kids out trick or treating. I was just about to drag them out around the neighborhood when Todd showed up at home to take the kids out! They were so happy.






Our neighborhood turned out to be great for tricking and treating. There were quite a few young kids out and about. There were many houses decorated and a lot of families sitting out on their porches handing out candy. The kids had full bags after only two blocks! Max kept saying, "Okay Mom. Just two more houses!" And then Maddie would pipe up, "Nooooooo. I want to go to lots more houses!" She didn't understand that Max wanted to go to "two more houses" all night! We finally got them back inside to warm up with some hot chocolate before bed. (Hot Chocolate is Max's favorite drink lately.) ............... Trick or Treat! Dad saves Halloween! ...............
