Halloween

Halloween this year was great--the kids were old enough that there was really no whining during trick-or-treating, and that's a first! Robbie went with his friends, and they were much faster than us girls were. There is a gated subdivision next to us where a lot of people hand out full-sized candy bars, and Robbie and his friends devised a plan to hit that neighborhood twice. They went once, came home and changed costumes, and then went out again--pretty sneaky! They were able to hit all the homes twice in less time than it took Talia, Sarah and I to do one round. After we got home, we separated all the candy and put all the peanut stuff up and let the kids go to town. There's still plenty of candy left, but they're working on depleting it as fast as they can! Rob's first costume--the second time around he went as a football player.
