Halloween

We spent Halloween at Andrew, Luke & Allie's house with our family and their neighbors. When I mentioned maybe celebrating Halloween with our new neighbors, Ben looked at me like I was crazy and said, "We always have Halloween at Andrew's house, we have to go there!" So we did, and the kids had so much fun. Ben was a red Power Ranger and this year he and Andrew were totally into Trick-or-Treating and RAN from house to house. Ben was worried all day that it would be raining, but there was a nice little break in the rain. Partway through, it started to drizzle and Heidi was ready to go back. She does not like getting rained on. She was a princess this year and was so cute in her pink dress and crown, although soon after she got out of the car, she broke her wand. Baby Kate had 2 costumes. She was a ladybug, but because it was a bulky costume, we took Heidi's cowgirl costume for her to wear too. Leslie had their house set up so cute for the kids. She had the front room full of fun activities for the kids and they really played so well together. Grandma T and Grandma E made yummy homemade donuts for us and of course we had lots of other food. Everyone had a good time and on the way home Ben asked, "Dad, how much longer until the next Halloween?"
