Halloween 2012

Tradition has been to take the girls Trick-Or-Treating in Grandpa and Grandma's neighborhood in Orem. This year was no different.  The girls love it and we love it, so why change a good thing, right?  Nate's mom and dad are kind enough to provide some food for us and we take the girls out for a night of fun and safe trick or treating.

This year, Hailey wanted to be a Macaw and Addy wanted to be a Colorful Fairy. I think they both turned out pretty darn cute. This year was super fun since they got to trick-or-treat with their little cousin Benson. He was an adorable dragon.









The girls always get quite the workout trick-or-treating in this neighborhood. There are lots of hills and long steep driveways to walk up. In the end, we ended up with WAY too much candy and some very happy little girls.  They got tired pretty fast and we didn't even make it through the whole neighborhood like we usually do, but Nate and I didn't mind.  We went back to grandma and grandpa's for some pizza and hang out time. The girls love to help grandpa hand out candy at their house. It's always so fun for them to see others dressed up too.  It was a successful Halloween and more dress-ups to add to their overflowing bin of such.  Nate and I are NOT fans of the girls eating candy. Especially a lot of it.  The good news is, they aren't use to much sweets around our house, so they usually forget about their stash after a couple days. That's just what happened this year as well and i'm so glad.  It was a successful Halloween full of fun and family.. just the way I like it.

What did you do with the stash? I wouldn't mind a little of that, haha! It was so fun for us to hang out and trick or treat, especially this time with our own little one. Can't wait to keep up the tradition.
