Halloween 2016


What a fun year it was for trick-or-treating!  Vivian had the best time and Joanna just took it all in.  Oh, to be a kid again! I guess that's a great thing about having children yourself, to bring back your memories as a child.  Sweet sweet times.

Over the course of the weekend, we did a couple of trunk-or-treating, one being at our church for the fall carnival and the other being in Hampstead at one of their churches we went to for our first time trunk-or-treating.  Everybody was in 'awe' of Joanna being a dalmatian puppy which was Vivian's costume around the same age.  Vivian was Princess Sofia from Disney's Sofia the First for trunk-or-treating and Princess Anna from Frozen for actual Halloween.  She stained her dress at the carnival.  She looked beautiful both times.  Love those sweet girls! 











We of course had to dress Mr. Brody in one of his old costumes.  Halloween is his least favorite year and this may be his last Halloween with us.  Poor bub may have bone cancer, nothing we can do for him.  We love that sweet boy as well!


Halloween fell on a Monday this year and we were able to go in our neighborhood for 'actual' trick-or-treating.  What a sweet, sweet memory that was created.  Vivian was soooo excited and loved every single minute!  Our neighborhood has two other families and the rest of the neighbors, their kids are either living outside the home, grown or they are retired. They were so sweet to let us know they would be handing out candy.  Plus side, we didn't have to go to an unknown neighborhood for trick-or-treating.  The girls scored some good candy as well!  They even got a couple of goody bags, a new tooth brush and full size candy bars.  We have enough candy to last an entire year HA!  





I know the girls won't remember their first time to go house-to-house, but we will never forget.  Happy Halloween!!
