HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!

This year our little family went with the theme of "Little Red Riding Hood". Originally we were going to have Landon go as the big bad wolf and Jer as the woodsman, but Landon hates to dress up. Everything that we would try to put on him he would say "don't want it" even when Jer would put stuff on he would say "daddy don't want it" "take it off daddy". So, we had Landon go as the woodsman because he just had to wear a flannel shirt and carry an axe. Jer was the big bad wolf, Leah was little red, and I was grandma. We had a fun time at our first trunk-or-treat on Saturday night. The lilos still didn't grasp the concept of trick-or-treating. They got a sucker at the 4th car and stopped and wanted dad to open it. From there it was like herding cats to get them to move from car to car. Landon didn't understand why the people didn't put all the candy from their bowl into his trick-or-treat pumpkin. It was fun to see them in action. On Sunday night we just hung out at home and watched movies. We had quite a few trick-or-treaters come by and Landon quickly took over the responsibility of putting a piece of candy in each kid's bag. He got super excited every time the door bell rang and ran to the door. He said, "trick-or-treat" and then gave them each some candy. He then said, "there you go" and "see you kids." Next year he might just be content answering the door and handing out candy. It was adorable to watch.
