Since Chris was in the hospital on Halloween, our boys didn't actually go trick or treating this year. We keep our costumes out all year long, though, and they play with them regularly. They always role play and wrestle in them. Connor gets soooo sweaty. I love it! My mom took all three boys to Cole's school carnival, then took them on home with her. They stayed there entire time and Connor actually participated in the activities. I was glad since he didn't want to play any of the games last year.
We also went to the ward trunk or treat. The boys had fun. I feel bad that I didn't let Carson out, though, because he's to the age where he would have loved it. I figured he would go on Halloween when it wasn't so crowded, but no such luck. Josh came over after the carnival and got the boys all wild before bed. Carson finally warmed up to him, too. All it takes is a little candy!
IHOP offers free scary face pumpkins on Halloween for kids, so I let Cole sluff the first hour of school so we could go and not have the restaurant too packed. They always dump on every type of syrup and devour most of their giant pancake. Carson used his hands and became the biggest, stickiest, cutest mess. A lady who had been staring at us quite a bit told commented on my incredibly well behaved children on the way out. Made me happy!
