Happy Halloween!

For Halloween this year, we went up to Nana and Grandpa's house to celebrate. In past years, they have told us that trick-or-treating is a big deal in their neighborhood, so we decided to give it a try. They were right... the kids had a blast! I will let Captain America (Andrew), Darth Vader (Nathan), and Mickey Mouse (Caden) take over. The pictures tell a story of our day!


The first thing we did when we got to Nana and Grandpa's was play outside. The kids love to play outside when they go there!




So, I have to tell a little background information about the last picture. We love to watch "Mantracker" on TV as a family. It is a show that follows an outdoors adventure where Mantracker is supposed to search in the woods and find a couple that is running from him. I went over and asked Andrew what he was doing, and he said he was hiding from Mantracker.

Before dark, because the kids couldn't wait, we began our trick-or-treating. We started out with taking pictures of the three kids. Nathan was Darth Vader, Andrew was Captain America, and Caden was Mickey Mouse (at the last minute).




We went over to visit one of Jeff's teachers that lives in the Woodlands. We had to take a picture of Caden because he looked so confused being in a different car and car seat.


When we got back, we began the much anticipated trick-or-treating. Nathan and Andrew did not have a nap, so Andrew petered out pretty soon after we started. We made it down Nana and Grandpa's street, and he wanted to turn around. There is a little boy and girl that live on their street, and Nathan hit it off with them. Nathan and Jeff went about three streets away with the little boy and girl and their families
