Halloween 2011

We have had a very full Halloween! We started at Caitlin’s school festival. When Nana, Sean, and I got there we saw Caitlin waiting quietly in her spot for the fun to begin. They had a pumpkin carving contest, a storyteller, and a costume parade. When we took her back to the classroom after the fun she decided that she wanted to come home with us. I decided there was no harm in that, so we headed back to the house.

After naptime Caitlin put on her other costume and we headed to Daddy’s office.

There is not much in terms of Trick or Treating in the townhouses where we live, so the Irishman picked up candy and cracker/cookie snack packs. He handed them out to his co-workers so that Caitlin could come Trick-or-Treat for goodies.

The cowboy and his big sister were a big hit!

After dinner we headed over to show off the costumes to my grandparents.

Our last stop of the evening was to Trick-or-Treat at Sue and Bob’s house. We had some sleepy kiddos by that point, but it was great to see them!

It was a busy day, but I wouldn’t have it any other way. It is even more fun now that Caitlin is just getting to be old enough to enjoy things like this. She is taking it all in and figuring it out, though at my grandparents’ house tonight she returned all the candy in her bag before we left. I’m sure by next year it will be a different story!

I also love that Caitlin had two costumes. Ava did as well, it's just too fun for one. ;)
