Halloween

Halloween was very fun, of course!! We experienced a first....a Halloween parade at school. The boys were pumped. I watched them all parade around the school and then went back to their rooms for Halloween parties, complete with Halloween decor and the word Halloween!!!! Crazy, huh? After we got home from school and ate dinner, we met up with a few kids from Garrett's class and a couple from Gavin's and trick or treated around the neighborhood. Garrett got cold after a while and didn't want to cover up his costume with a coat, so he and Darin headed home. Kierstin didn't want to go home, she wanted to keep going. She was dressed as a bunny and she walked the whole way. She also insisted on carrying her 2000 pound pink pumpkin bucket by herself. Finally towards the end, when the bucket was honestly causing her to tip over, cutting the circulation off to her fingers, she let me tote it. Gavin and Kierstin and I got home about 45 minutes after Garrett. Garrett had arranged all his candy in piles of like types. He was handing out candy...I'm not exactly sure of his thoughts, but it seems like cute girls received the comment, "Here's some candy for you, you get extra candy because you're extra awesome."
