Halloween Festivities-2

On Halloween night, Sarah and Kate went trick-or-treating with their cousin Tyler. We stayed out longer than ever before and the kids came home with an unbelievable amount of candy. At one house, Sarah told the person handing out the candy that Tyler was her husband. Kate got a very funny look on her face and then she said "No, he is not really her husband, it is just a costume!!" It was fun to watch the kids interact and show their unique personalities. Sarah was not about to miss out on any candy and walked right into even the spookiest of doorways. Kate was all about the decorations, taking her time to really check them all out and even asking some people about how they turn on or off, etc. Kate was a little reluctant to walk up to some of the spookier houses, but she always braved it in the end.
Juliette did not dress up this year, but she was still festive in her animal print outfit. She seemed to enjoy the night time walk and was very happy the whole night.
My mom made this great spider cake and a special cupcake for each of the kids. Sarah and Kate had kitty cupcakes and Tyler had a bat. This picture was taken right before we demolished the cake.
Uncle Pideon did not trick-or-treat this year, so he came over to get food and candy from us, of course. That is fine, we love him and if we have to bait him with food, candy and football to come over, then so be it.

How fun! I love the cakes. Great story! Sarah sure is brave, not suprising seeing how brave she is when it comes to roller coasters!

That is so funny about Sarah and her husband. Just FYI, we are coming to see you guys the Saturday before Thanksgiving. We're going to Disneyland and hope we can spend the night with you. I'll call you soon with the details.

The girls, Tyler and Gideon look adorable in their costumes. Love the cake. Juliette is looking so much older already. Wow.
