Yesterday was Halloween and both boys had a pretty fun day. We started the day off by taking Tyler to preschool and Tony, Josh, and I went to Macy's to do some shopping and to do a little trick-or-treating at the store (they do it every year). They gave Josh a bag and he got about 4 pieces of candy, but we had fun and found some deals.
After that we went to a couple more stores before picking up Tyler from preschool. Then we headed to Grandma Kim's to do some trick-or-treating at her house. She wasn't there, so we just helped our self to their treats. Then we stopped at Uncle Boyd's and then on to Grandma Margie's. Grandma Margie gives out the good stuff and the boys had fun seeing her. Then it was off to Chick-Fil-A for lunch. If your kid dressed up they got a free kids meal and they also had free shakes. It was pretty busy, but we got there at a good time and was able to get a good seat.
Then it was home for Josh's nap. While Josh napped, we carved pumpkins. I thought Tyler would really like it, but he didn't like touching the inside seeds and gunk because it got him "dirty." Then he couldn't use the knife, so he lost interest pretty quickly.
Our ward did a trunk-or-treat, so I dropped the boys off at the church and Tony took them around there and then around the neighborhood. They both had a good time but really wanted to come home and pass out candy to the other kids. We didn't get as many as we normally do, so that was kind of sad. I like seeing all the kids and how they dress up. I also think Tyler had more fun passing out candy then he did getting it...well I am sure both were good for him.
Honestly I am glad that Halloween is over. Now on to Thanksgiving and all that the Holiday season has to offer. It is currently snowing big fluffy flakes of snow and we just love it. Let the snow come and the holiday cheer.
