Halloween Night
Well the kids had a great Halloween!
The fun started on Friday night for the big kids who stayed the night at their Grandma’s house after going to the Halloween party at her Church. They said the Haunted House was awesome! Both kids received plenty of candy at the trunk-or-treat.
Yesterday morning, the tiny tots helped Mama finish decorating the front porch and helped decorate our car for the trunk-or-treat. It turned out really cute! We then cleaned the house while listening to the Monster Mash over and over. By the time we were finished, E knew the words pretty well!
B had a baseball game in the afternoon, and they won. Yay! Following the game, we headed over to our Church’s party and trunk-or-treat.
As we were leaving the game and loading up our car, A (the baby) tripped and cut her forehead open! Blood was everywhere and I was sure we’d be spending the rest of our day at the Urgent Care. But I managed to get the bleeding stopped and A seemed okay. So we finished getting everyone into their costumes and headed to the party.
A was asleep when we arrived so the big kids to took E to play all of the games while I watched A and set up our car for the trunk-or-treat. E had so much fun, the big kids helped her win lots of goodies and took her to get her face painted.
Later Mama and E ate chili and cornbread while the big kids played some games on their own.
The big kids took E around for the trunk-or-treat while I handed out candy. A woke up about half-way through. She was sleepy at first and helped me pass out candy until she realized what was going on. She woke up real fast, hopped down and headed out with big sister to fill up her treat bag.
A and E were BEAMING by the time they finished with near full bags! They really had a great time.
We then headed home where Daddy had started handing out candy to trick-or-treaters. The big kids went to a few houses that were really decorated on our street. When they got back, their bags were FULL so Mama said enough and they headed off together to count and trade their goods.
While the big ones were out, we watched Charlie Brown and the Great Pumpkin and handed out candy. A and E handed out the candy and they ran to the door every time they heard a knock. We kept telling E, give two pieces of candy, but she’d grab a handful and toss it in. A decided to do the same so every kid who came to our house last night went home with a lot of candy. I’m sure they didn’t mind!
When all was said and done, the kids ended up with A LOT of candy! The floor was covered, I can’t imagine how they will ever eat it all.
I am really thankful for all of the people at church who put together such a great party for the kids. And to all of our neighbors who take the time to decorate and pass out goodies. It really makes the holidays so much fun for the kiddies.
Hope everyone else had a great night
