Scenes from Halloween

We had another fun Halloween this year and we owe it all to our wonderful neighborhood.

Allie wore her dance costume this year and Meredith planned on being a pirate princess. But at the last minute, she changed her mind and decided to wear her dance costume also.

Our neighbors planned a little pre-trick or treat luncheon in the hopes of filling the kids up with some wholesome food. And I think it worked. The girls didn't seem to eat quite as much candy throughout the evening.

Here is Allie with Mr. Stealth Commando...

and Meredith with Miss Butterfly at our neighbor's luncheon.

Once the rest of the gang arrived, we were ready to trick or treat.

Here is Mikayla (Liv's BFF) as a corpse bride, Olivia as a witch, Meredith, Allie, and Amelia as a cavegirl riding a dinosaur!


The kids barely had to leave the front yard to get their first treat.

This is our scary neighbor lady with her not so scary dog, Tucker, who is dressed as an elf!

Another perk to trick or treating in our neighborhood...people hand out treats for the parents as well. One house was even handing out little cupfulls of BBQ cocktail weenies with toothpicks.

No wonder Jason loves Halloween just as much as the kids!
