We tried a new place to Trick or Treat this year. It wasn't as good as our little neighborhood shopping center so we retreated to familiar territory for a fun evening. I wasn't sure how either boy was going to handle it all, Alex was acting reluctant when we left the house, and it was Zachary's first Halloween that he truly participated in. Both of them did a great job! We started out gathering bucketfuls of treats, meeting some friendly dogs, and even seeing some people we know. Then the boys took a short break to drink some water and have a few treats before heading off to the Harvest Festival. There is a community church on the other side of the parking lot that holds the festival. The boys were free, and our cover wasn't very high and included a hot dog, chips, water, popcorn, peanuts, carny games, and the balloon man. Even though they are still too little to be truly successful, the boys tried the games and walked away with candy. Then just before heading home, we waited for balloons. Alex requested a hat and was super excited by the end product. Zachary's favorite animal is a monkey, so that is what he chose.
Everyone was pretty riled up when we arrived home, but fortunately they calmed down quickly once they had their jammies on. The picture is a sample, you can find more here.
Hope you had a safe and fun night too!
