Halloweeeeen!

Waiting can be so hard! Brian had to work at the fire station today and did not get home until about 7:30 pm. We promised that we would wait to go trick-o-treating until Daddy got home and it was a long wait! Nana came over to answer the door while we were out. Ashtyn was a princess, of course, Ryder decided at the last minute to be Diego rather than The Hulk, Chase was a knight, (same as last year), and Pudgy of course! (He stayed at home with Nana during trick-o-treating to hand out candy.)


Here is the gang after their treating. We really weren't sure how Ashtyn would do, last year she stayed home. She kept up with the boys not missing a house. Some of the costumes scared her and she had so much candy in her bag that by the end she was dropping candy as she walked. Chase and Ryder were walking behind her, picking up the candy that got away. We just did our street and that was it, the boys didn't want to go any further. It was very fun being out at night with our little family of 5 trick-o-treating!

The best part is coming home and sorting the candy. Chase and Ryder got to it right away, reminding me of well, me at their age. Ashtyn did as they were and was very happy with herself. The boys were allowed 5 pieces of candy each and were so tired by the time they were through that Ryder put himself to bed and was pretty mad at us when we insisted that he wake up and brush his teeth after eating all of that candy.
