This is Halloween

The meal:

Momma's homemade chili, I fried up some scones, spider cake, popcorn balls, candy popcorn... yum.


Then we went Trick-or-treating. I'm pretty sure Piper was digging it. She also was smart enough to wear a coat.



Adi refused, saying that she had on long sleeves and didn't need it. Well, she did. She was the first to say that she wanted to go home.


Porter was so excited over the knock-and-get-candy thing. Everytime he'd get something new in his bag, he'd run to OP and yell, "Dad! More treats!"

But this little spillage happened about twenty five times last night. No exaggeration.


Did I mention how much Pipes enjoyed trick or treating?


We then went home and watched Monsters, Inc. while inspecting the goods.

Porter shoved about thirty seven pieces of candy into his mouth before we could wrestle the bag away from him.



We found out that our neighborhood gives out really good candy... and cans of pop.




Piper was trying to count her candy, but kept getting distracted by the TV.


And here is the vulture, err, daddy "inspecting" their treats (meaning he's eying what he's gonna take out once the kiddos go to bed).

Love it! Wish I could have been there to have a hauntingly good time. You should have posted a picture of your costume!

Courtney, you are truly amazing! The costumes are unbelievable and the tea party is just too cute for words! I always love visiting your blog. Enjoy the snow for the rest of us warm folk (it was 85 yesterday)
