Halloween Pictures - Better Late Than Never

I realize I'm almost two weeks behind in posting these, but it's better late than never. We let the kids pick out their costumes this year. Mason has wanted to be Spiderman since earlier this summer. Taylor originally wanted to be Tinker Bell, but switched when we went to buy the costumes. She decided to be Strawberry Shortcake and I picked out Peyton's. With not knowing how big she would be and realizing she would sleep all through trick-or-treating, I decided she would make the perfect Ladybug. It helped that I found a cute sleeper for her to wear.

Adam was able to get off of work early and I made an early dinner for Mason & Taylor. As soon as Adam arrived, we took pictures and then headed down the street. We decided to stick to only our street this year, and then let the kids hand out candy. They loved walking door to door and had so much fun showing off their costumes.

The highlight of the evening for everyone was handing out candy. Our neighborhood must be the place to go trick-or-treating because we had more kids walking the streets with their parents than I have ever seen in my life. Last year we made the smart choice to sit out on the driveway and hand out candy, so we did the same thing this year. It saves getting up constantly to answer the door. We let Mason & Taylor give the kids candy. Taylor was exceptionally kind and gave extra candy to the kids who had costumes that she liked.

By the end of the evening, they were wiped and so were we. It was a very fun evening and they are already talking about what costume they want to be next year.
