Happy Halloween!

The girls could hardly sleep last night because the anticipation of Halloween was so great.

First off was a costume parade at Sami's school. I thought this was so fun. All the kids marched around the school in their costumes. Jonathan took a half day off so he could be there and it meant so much to Sami. She told me later she was afraid we wouldn't come. I am so glad we went!

 

Then it was her class party. I got to help in the classroom. I made a bingo game and a calk walk game for the class. But I mainly just wanted to meet all Sami's friends and see her with her friends. Thankfully she loved having me there and kept telling everyone I was her mom. (Love that! I am going to remind her of this in middle school when she is embarrassed to see me. ☺)

 

Then we had a fun Halloween dinner and then it was time for trick-or-treating. Sami and Janie could hardly wait! And it was perfect Fall weather tonight.

Lucy was a monkey but I couldn't keep her hood up for anything.

 

Sami and Janie are both witches.

 

I am in love with Autumn here.



I brought Lucy home after a few minutes so that I could pass out candy and put her to bed. Obviously I let her enjoy a few treats first. 

Jonathan took Sami and Janie out for over an hour. He could have kept going but Sami and Janie said they were tired. And they loved handing out candy at our door.

I hope it was all Sami and Janie had been hoping for. I think it was.
