Saturday morning we got dressed up, again, to go to story time at the library. Is there anything better than hunting for candy amongst library books? Last night Ben was resistant to put on his cookie costume, so this morning he went down to our dress up box and decided to be Mr. Incredible instead... I think that people repeatedly coming up to him last weekend and telling him that they wanted to eat him may have been a bit too much;)
When we got home from the library, with Grandpa as supervisor we burned our brush pile. Gabe was on call, so having another adult was helpful. Dad tended the fire, I hauled wood with the kids and Gabe continued to cut down trees in between phone calls.
We went out trick or treating and enjoyed walking the neighborhood in such mild temperatures! I was hoping that because we went to a Halloween party the night before we could skip the party that we usually have before we go out tick or treating, but the kids weren't going to let that slide. So, after candy treats we bobbed for apples, ate donuts, played bingo and had a scavenger hunt. We tried for a new game this year that involved sucking jello through a straw, but no one could get it going even a little, so we will bag that for future parties;) Happy Halloween!
