I LOVE Halloween! I love the dressing up, skulls and everything about this holiday. Kids love it too and we spend it with friends. This year I feel a bit behind the 8-ball and instead of carving pumpkins I talked the twins into painting pumpkins. I just was too lazy to go up in the attic and get down the tools but luckily that worked!
Then it was on to our friends house for our annual trick-or-treating! So much fun! The kids all looked so great!
Most of the moms stay behind and man the candy station while the kids are out lugging all that candy. I am not sure who had more fun. There sure was a lot of laughing and I got to channel my inner news reporter!
I love to see how much fun the twins have! This was the first year that my oldest teenager was just too old and had some buddies over to shoot pool and hang out. Oh how these days are fleeting!
Thanks to Tina and Lori for being the hostesses with the mostesses! I hope everyone had a safe and wonderful Halloween. Now bring on Thanksgiving!!

Looks like a great time. I always loved when the kids came back and the candy exchange would begin. Jen being 4 1/2 yeas older would "take advantage" of her brother in the trades until we stepped in.

I love the bartering part too Jean! It was strange not to have 3 doing it!
