Trick or Treat




A few days before Halloween we carved pumpkins. Blake did the best job and Abby enjoyed watching her big brother. Steve and I went to Abby's school Monday and carved pumpkins with her class. They were able to use them during nap time. We had a lot of fun doing that with Abby and her friends.

Abby, Jacob and I went trick or treating around the neighborhood with Ethan, Nik and Travis Parker. Steve stayed home to pass out candy. Blake and his friend walked around and then Blake ended up coming home and passing out candy with Steve.

Jacob was SO excited. As we left each house, he would run to me and scream "Mom, can we go to another house?" Abby had a good time, too but was not as excited as her brother. Jacob was Pablo from his favorite show "The Backyardigans." He was the only Pablo we saw and everyone (Moms and kids mostly) loved his costume. Abby was a pirate and we passed a lot of those although she was the only girl pirate we saw.

When we got home we sorted through their goodies and a majority of their stuff was rejected due to peanuts. But, I had bought a bunch of "safe" treats and traded them for those. We had lots of fun!
