Trick or Treat

I promise this is my last pumpkin/costume/candy themed post heavy on pics of Beezie. Let's get down to brass tacks!

Our fun friends Carly and Yo volunteered to host a Halloween party. Correction: I kind of tricked them into doing it by buttering them up and mentioning that they "have a spacious home in a great neighborhood" that would be an excellent backdrop for our Halloween shenanigans. It was.

After a tasty dinner, we gathered up all of the kiddios and hit the pavement to collect candy.






B got a little cat from a kind lady who admitted to spending copious amounts of time and money in bowling alleys. That was a direct quote just in case you thought I was stereotyping her.

B got a nice little haul. Then it was back to the house to play with friends. B and her little friend Aubrey had a blast with this ball popper. Note to Santa.



Today was also her last day of preschool. Yes, you read that correctly. B goes to a little preschool in Sunnyvale. It's a Mommy 'n' Me deal once a week for an hour and a half. She absolutely loves it. Since it was Halloween, they had the kids come in partywear.

My Little Witchie


One of the teachers brought her daughter, and she spent all of her time dressing Beezie up in her costume props--a tiny hat and nerd glasses.


Colin is also in our class. They had a funny little exchange this afternoon. It was all in gibberish, but they knew what the other one was saying.

It was a beautiful day, and Blake spent the outdoor portion running around with a little car that she pushed back and forth. She finally figured out how to turn the car, so I no longer have to rescue her when she hits a fence or other roadblock.

The kids got to make little treat bags in class, and then we got to go through the offices trick or treating. They handed out lightweight gifts instead of candy--spider rings, stickers, and bubbles. Colin and B knew they had been gypped.





Happy Halloween everyone!! Thanks for all of the fun and festive adventures! See you on October 1st, 2012.

Now it's time to bust out the indian corn and horns of plenty. It will be a cornucopia of delight.

Kaari--

This was a fun post and I loved the skeleton costumes! ;)

I'm sure you had a blast at your friend's house, but I was a little disappointed because who was there to man your house for the trick-or-treaters?

It just seemed like you put so much work into your awesome, award-winning Spooktacular Display, it must have been hard to not be able to revel in it as the munchkins were out and about.

Have you packed everything up already to make room for your harvest display?
