Trick Or Treat

After all of the parades and parties, it seems like we've been celebrating Halloween forever. Alas, the big day finally arrived and we started off at a neighborhood party.

Charlie met his match...two peas in a pod, ha!


We were hanging in the kitchen and realized that we hadn't heard from Cole in a while. We found him in the Dining Room (also the location of the dessert table) and it appeared that he helped himself to a cupcake. How he managed to get chocolate on his eye is anybody's guess.


After a rockin' pinata and lots of pizza, the boys were on the move. Time to find more chocolate.


Cole was slowing everyone down by taking (what seemed like) hours to make his choices. Whenever he was offered the candy he would pretend to be considering each piece carefully, "um...um...um..." and then he'd finally plunge into the bowl and grab as many as his hand could hold. The charm of this approach only lasted so long.



As I nibble on their bounty I wonder: (A) Which neighbor was giving out the full size bags of Skittles - c'mon - I can't compete with that, and (B) Is there anything better than a pair of faux Batman briefs and a sleepy Transformer??

Happy Halloween...bring on the Turkey!
