Get Candy, Get Candy, Get Candy!








Halloween evening began with our Friday night tradition: cheese dip and fajitas at Las Palmas Mexican Restaurant. Afterwards, the children were happy to get into costumes to go after dessert! Owen was some sort of crazy black cat that Jamie brought for us, Micah was a homemade calculator, and Riley and Sam were matching monkeys. Sam had to have her banana in her hand because "it will be so cute, mommy!" At the first house, Owen popped out of his wagon, went up to the house, held out his bucket, received his candy, asked me to open his lollipop, got back in the wagon, and ate it for the next 45 minutes. It was hilarious because it really seemed like he had been listening to us explain what we were going to do to the other kids. Apparently he understood too even though I don't think he has ever heard the word candy. He loved his costume, especially the fact that it had a hat. Micah asked if he could put his calculator on again the next night and get more candy! Sam and Riley had a blast riding in the push car of Owen's. I was only able to snap a few shots because they were all moving so fast.
