It was a beautiful night for Trick or Treating! The weather was perfect - we didn't have to put snow pants on the kids under their costumes this year!
We started off the evening just before dark. The kids have been going through an "I'm scared," phase, so we were a little worried about their reaction to Halloween. Luckily, we had no issues. Once the candy started flowing, they were the happiest little ghosts in town!
No major injuries to report, although we did have a few close calls.
Gabe was the first to trip running across the street to the next house, but he was able to brush it off, readjust his costume, and keep on going. He tripped one other time when running full speed (in the dark) and smack into a huge decorative rock in a families front yard. Since he has the reflexes of a Puma, he quickly regained his balance and yelled back to us, "Whoa! That was a close one!" while still running.
Kayla (the little Princess that lives next door to us, and Peyton's best friend) hit the pavment a couple of times but, agan, avoided major injuries.
I think Peyton took the biggest tumble out of all three when she lost her footing. She was running full speed to keep up with the other 2 when she took a digger to the sidewalk. She came back up screaming and covered in leaves. I thought for sure she broke a wrist catching herself! After a few moments of consoling, she was back out with her friends terrorizing the neighborhood!
