This was our second year spending Halloween at Ga-Ga & Pa's house. Their neighborhood is very kid friendly and almost everyone participates so you don't have to walk very far to get a lot of candy.
I wanted to wait to start trick or treating until the boys had seen at least one trick or treater come to Ga-Ga and Pa's. Last year Owen did much better after he had a visual of what to do. In this picture Owen is yelling....trick or treaters, COME HERE!!!
This is Ga-Ga's stash for the trick or treaters...minus one bowl and one more bag of candy. They get a ton of kids in their neighborhood. In fact I asked her to keep track and at the end of the night they had 189 trick or treaters. We did have 1 one stop by at 9:44pm, a good hour after the one before that, but we didn't get to the door in time and they had moved onto the next house.
Time to get dressed up!
All ready!
What are all those other kids doing Mama?
Oh yeah I remember! Last year I think Owen said "Trick or Treat" once or twice, but this year he said it almost every time as well as saying, "Thank you". Jack on the other hand would just look at them and say, "MORE!"
Owen's favorite thing to say after he had got his candy was, "Next house!" He definitely got it!
Hey I know this house....it's Ga-Ga & Pa's!
This is their loot...Owen's is on the left and Jack's is on the right. Jack got a bid more than Owen because people would let the boys reach in and choose their candy and Owen knows how to count so we would say two and he would take two. Jack on the other hand would just stare at the people and keep reaching in the bowl and take more until we stopped him. He was so cute of course they wouldn't stop him.
All done...time to get all sugared up!
Happy Halloween!
Okay can you take this off now?
