Happy Halloween!

The Scarecrow and Dorothy

Halloween was so much fun this year because for the first time the girls "got it."  Well. Sorta. They did ask for presents quite a few times until they realized they were getting candy and then they proceeded to ham it up at every door :-) Before trick or treating we had the whole family over for pumpkin carving and dinner.  Then all the little girls got dressed up and we headed out.  The girls were so great at saying "Trick or Treat" when a door opened and so polite with their please and thank yous for candy.  They even said "Bye! Happy Halloween!" when we turned to leave each porch :-)  We didn't know how long they would last out there and when it seemed like they were slowing down I asked if they were ready to go home--Lu yelled NO and proceeded to pull me by the arm to the next house!  After everyone was finally tucked in for the night I continued to hear the girls on the monitor saying "trick or treat!" or "happy Halloween!" until 11PM!!  *They only had one piece of candy each so I imagine they were just hopped up on adrenaline at that point* All in all we had such a good time with family and trick or treating and this experience makes me look forward to all the future holidays.
