This is the day we have been waiting for. The kids are so excited and have had such a good day. I woke up early this morning to get myself ready for the day, and while I was ironing my skirt Kyle woke the kids up to get them fed and dressed so Ethan wouldn’t be late to school.
Ethan was a bumble bee, Tyra was a poodle, Jeremy was Snoopy and Dinah was Tenderheart care bear.
Sandy, Wendy and I were southern belles, complete with old fashioned underwear, and hoop skirts.
After school we picked Ethan up and came home and the kids all wanted to change costumes. So Ethan was a pumpkin, Tyra was a unicorn, Jeremy was a dragon, and Dinah was still Tenderheart care bear.
Then we headed off to meet Kyle at his second job for the Halloween party there, but he got stuck on a phone call at his first job, so that fell through. SO we drove over to his first job and waited for him to get off the phone so he could get us in the building for Trick or Treating. The kids had so much fun. I think Jeremy got the most candy. He would just walk up to a bowl on a desk or chair and look in and say “ummmmmmm. THIS ONE! annnnnnd THIS ONE!” Ya so he is cute 😉 Dinah had fun and knew exactly what we were putting in her pumpkin and insisted on having lollypops while we walked around from desk to desk. Ethan and Tyra were typical kids walking from desk to desk taking a candy and saying “OOOOO look what I got 😀 ”
After Trick or Treating Sandy and I brought the kids back home while Kyle finished up at work and he had Wendy with him so they could go pick up Wendy’s friend who is spending the night. We had pizza delivered for dinner, which arrived shortly after Sandy and I and the kids got home. Then after Kyle, Wendy and her friend Jen got home we took the kids trick or treating around the neighborhood so they could see their friends and show off their costumes. We didn’t get to carving our pumpkins which makes me sad. I was hoping to get everyone together so we could do it together, but it just didn’t happen this year. I also wanted to make caramel apples, but that also didn’t work out today. But it was a busy and fun day. 🙂
