Halloween Fun

We have had such a fun night! We just got back from trick or treating and we have lots of candy. We went out last night to a local church for some trunk or treating. We didn't last long because it was sooo busy, and it was very cold. But Abby ran into some kids from her class at school and was thrilled to have 13 pieces of candy. :)
Tonight we were supposed to go out trick or treating with some friends, but their son came down with strep throat and there was no way I was about to get close to that. I just don't want to make another trip to urgent care. So we made other plans. Our amazing friend Hannah called to tell us that Hope College was having trick or treating tonight so we headed over there. It was so fun. There were games to play, crafts to make, tunnels to crawl through and of course there was candy. Hannah walked with us and Grace was happy.
Then we came home and did a few houses in our neighborhood. Abby was running from house to house and thrilled with each new piece of candy. But she tired of it quickly and then just wanted to go home to hand out our candy. We only got one visitor. I think the rest of the kids had come while we were gone. Needless to say we now have a bowl full of candy that was to be handed out and Abby's bowl of candy. We have plenty to share, so please come on over! :) Abby decided to be Ariel from the Little Mermaid on Friday night.
Today she chose to be Snow White and we dressed Grace as a little lady bug.
It was a little chilly out so I layered her in two shirts and pants before putting the costume on, but she was so excited she didn't care.She's definitely a princess!!
Here are the girls waiting for the Hope festivities to begin.
Yeah for Hannah, Hope College, and CANDY!
