Trunk or Treat and Halloween

Finally they got to go Trunk or Treat for real this time. All the cars were lined up in a row and a LOT of candy passed hands.
As you can see, some people got into it more than others. This car had blacklights and smoke coming out of the trunk. It was chaotic at times so Billy kept an eye on his little brother.
At the end of the night we spread out the candy to look see how much loot they got.
After they all got dressed for bed, it was hard to get them wound down because of the amount of sugar they had eaten.

Two days later on Halloween, we started all over again.
This time all the neighbor kids walked together collecting candy. At times it became a race.
Drew's costume was a big hit. It has never gone out of style even though it has gone through Billy and Maverick.

You can never have too many pictures of a good costume!

Even though we didn't take a lot of pictures, we ended the night at Grandma and Grandpa Holden's house. Max had a cute costume too so we had to take a picture of it. Hallee and Maverick had good costumes too but the camera was not out to take pictures.
Overall it was a successful halloween. Lot's of candy and no injuries! The kids got to Trick or Treat until they were done. Now we get to look forward to Thanksgiving!
