Trick-or-Treat

 On Halloween we had a fun get together with the neighbors with Halloween themed food.  Sadly I took no pictures.  Then we all headed out trick-or-treating together.  This year we ended up with 2 M&Ms and Anna from Frozen.
Evan's costume is actually my sister's from years ago, and when he saw it in our costume bin he instantly decided that was what he wanted to be.  Kyle was hoping to be some sort of super hero, but he has outgrown the Costco options, and when he realized that he said he wanted to be and M&M with Evan.  Grace went back and forth between Annabeth from Percy Jackson and Anna. She actually went as Annabeth to school, and Anna for Halloween. Maybe I can reuse the Annabeth one for next year ;)
  The weather looked sketchy all day for that evening, but we decided we would brave it. We lucked out and only got drizzled on a little.  I think because of the lowsy weather people were more generous with the candy.  We did just our neighborhood, and not even all of the houses in it, and their buckets overflowed to the point I filled all of  my coat pockets with candy.
Kyle is definitely related to me.  He came home, dumped out his candy, and started sorting.
 Grace is super sweet, and as she went through hers she kept trying to give it to the people she thought would like it best.  The boys were kind and reciprocated by giving her all of the regular M&Ms- her favorite.  
Since Gramps was feeling better, the day after Halloween we took the kids up to see him and let he and Grammie see their costumes.  We watched the end of the Seahawks game together and the kids loved his Seahawks pjs.
Evan declared this his last year trick-or-treating.  He has the option to change his mind for next year, but it definitely made it a little bittersweet being out with him this year.  I am not a fan of how fast he is growing up.
