Halloween Night 2011

Tonight we celebrated Halloween with some friends at their house, followed by trick-or-treating in their neighborhood and then in our own neighborhood.  We're talking LOTS of treats, LOTS of walking (well, running), and LOTS AND LOTS of candy.  It was a really fun night - I've never been a huge fan of Halloween as an adult, but seeing the kids' excitement and watching them light up with every "Trick or Treat!" is such a blast. 

For Halloween night we abandon our family costumes and the kids wear whatever they want.  Haley chose to stay as Anakin...

...Jake made a dashing Thor...

...and Alex was a sweet, cuddly monkey.



 To coax the kids away from sweets and into the tub, we tossed in their glow bracelets and turned off the lights.  Pretty cool way to end the night!
Happy Halloween everyone!
