Now that he's 13, Dade has been kicked off the trick-or-treat train. I still snagged a whole bunch of candy for him out of the other kids' pile, but he didn't get to collect any of his own. He didn't mind, though. His favorite tv show is on Monday nights, and he was content to sit at home and watch it.
Like I said, some things remain the same. We still went to the Halloween even at the Shriner's Sesostris Shrine. Soren was freaked out, and I'm pretty sure Brody didn't come along with us because he was so freaked out last year. It is a little scary, but that's why it's fun!!
Of course, Colby made the kids' jack-o-lanterns to their specifications.
Dade carved his own this year. Yes, I gave him a knife. Shocking.
Our friends joined Colby and the kids as they trick-or-treated. I stayed home to hand out treats, as usual. It's my Halloween tradition to hand out treats and watch a scary movie.
Brody and his friends (Brody's in the gray and white camouflage with the green-tipped gun):
The girls:
One of the greatest blessings in humankind in the chance to make happy memories with your family. Halloween 2011 was definitely one of those memories to cherish!
