Trick or Treat

Friday morning the girls got to dress up for the Halloween Storytime at the library. They listened to pumpkin stories, worked on a puzzle, made a ghost, had snack, and got a fun purse full of goodies. We came home packed up our suitcases and took off up north. Stopped in Dorr for just a bit and saw the costume parade at sister in law Lisa's school, then went to Laurie's (Erin's mom) house to get Macey's costume. Since last Halloween Macey has been wanting to be Dorothy so Laurie was kind enough to make her a costume...it turned out great! Then to Brenda's we went to show family the girls' costumes. We enjoyed pizza, salad, and other goodies. It was a full house and the girls had a lot of fun receiving lots of goodies. Thanks everyone :)






We slept at Brenda's that night and enjoyed a breakfast at McDonalds before heading back to Dorr to celebrate Halloween. I am sad I didn't even take pictures of the girls with Merek who was Bam Bam :( The girls went with Grammy to church for trunk or treat and to play a few games before we rushed home to trick or treat in Colon, which started at 4pm. We made it just in time and the girls made out quite well with candy. I'm always surprised at how busy it is in our neighborhood with trick or treaters.




Up until Friday, Kelsey kept saying she wanted to be Sleeping Beauty and we have the dress so I was planning on that. Friday morning came and she changed her mind three times before heading to story time. She ended up wearing a different dress up dress we have...possibly Thumbelina? Then for trunk or treat she wanted to be a tap dancer in a sparkly silver leotard and tap shoes, then when we got home she quick switched to another princess dress with sunglasses :) The girl likes change I guess. (glad I didn't buy her a costume)





Taylie was a pea in a pod. (a costume Brenda bought YEARS ago on clearance from Meijer...remember Bren?) Notice her pink headband so no one would call her a boy.....last year Kelsey was called a boy TOO many times in her pumpkin costume.
Hope everyone else had a fun Halloween!
We're ALL enjoying the candy over here :)
