The weather the week before and the week after Halloween was UNREAL! The most beautiful weather. Fall was in full force with the blazing leaves and warm sun, but Summer stuck around for some perfect mid 70's temps. Just the best ever! We did a lot of playing outside, park trips, and walks. I don't want it to end!
I had bought a couple costumes for B, but none really worked out. So we used what we had and made him into Clark Kent! Which was equally hilarious and adorable. It ended up being too chilly to trick-or-treating to wear just this, so we went out the day before and snapped some pics! (And yes, bribery with Kix was necessary :) )
We watched the radar and noticed a clearing in the rain so we scrambled to get their kids into their costumes. We went with the monkey costume since it'd be much warmer and to our surprise Abby was a monkey too! It was so cute to see the two of them in the wagon together and walking up to houses dressed up as monkeys :). Daniel was a ninja and decided the babies' pace was too slow so he went ahead to get a bag full of candy!

Ah, what a comparison!
As usual, Halloween brought cooler temps for it's festivities and some rain. Luckily the rain held off for about an hour to take Barrett trick-or-treating for the first time! We went up to Lafayette on Saturday so we could spend Halloween with Matt's brother's family and so Barrett could trick or treat with his cousins.

We weren't totally sure what they would do, or if they'd have any clue what it was all about, but boy were we wrong! The little ones only needed us to show them what to do at one house and then they were ready to go! We pulled them in the wagon around the neighborhood and when we'd get close to a house they'd say "out!" and would go up to the porch to knock on the door. Once they'd open their door they knew exactly what to do with the candy, right into the buckets! They weren't afraid to take more than one. Barrett even had saying "trick or treat!" down, it was SO cute! In fact, on our walk the other day he saw a piece of candy on the floor and yelled "trick or treat!".
It was so much fun to watch B experience trick or treating, especially with some family. Everything is so much more fun with this little guy around :).
