My Crazy Busy Kids: Trunk or Treat

Mark and I took Hayden and Gracie to Trunk or Treat at Hayden's Preschool. The church had a few games set up in the Fellowship Hall for the kids, they also had dinner if you wanted to sit down and eat. Hayden was Cinderella, I must say she was beautiful and Gracie was Tinkerbell and she was beautiful also. Mark and I have the most beautiful girls ever! Hayden played all the games, but she was the best at bowling, she hit the one pin that she was supposed to and almost knocked them all over. She was so excited that Kierstin and Mark Brantley were there. Kierstin was a Pig, she was adorable in all her pink and Mark Brantley was a Horse, I don't think he was to sure about his costume, but it was very cute. They also had a game that was walking around to music and when the music stopped, you had to stop and if they called out the number you were standing on you would win a cupcake. When Hayden and Kierstin found out about the cupcake, they had to play. Stephanie and I helped them, Kierstin won a cupcake first, but I wasn't going to give up, so Hayden and I kept playing until she won one too!

Hayden's Bowling, she almost got them all!

Then Hayden got a even bigger surprise when Mimi, Kim and Artie all showed up. You should have seen her eyes when she noticed they were there! We all went back outside to Trunk or Treat, which is where everyone sets up candy in the back of the vehicles and the kids walk from car to car. I thought it was pretty neat, some of these people really go all out with decorations. Gracie wasn't to sure about Trunk or Treat, she just wanted her Mommy to hold her, so I finally told Mark to give her a sucker and she was as happy as a bug in a rug. She LOVED that sucker, she made a huge mess, but it was very sweet and she didn't cry the whole time. Hayden was very shy walking around. Everyone kept telling her she could have more than one piece and she would shake her head NO and move on to the next car. We even had one man say "wow she isn't anything like these other kids!" Once we got done trunk or treating, we set up in the back of our car and passed out candy too! That is when Hayden found out that they had cotton candy, and she had to have some. She was standing there with cotton candy in one hand, her candy bucket in the other and a sucker in her mouth (what more could a kid ask for?) Hayden and Kierstin sat in the back or our car with me and ate about 20 suckers. I am sure Stephanie was pleased with me last night! Finally about 7pm we decided it was time to head back home and get some dinner. Hayden told us that she sure was tired but she had lots of fun. We noticed as we were turning in Good Hope that she was almost asleep, so we had to promise her that when we got to our driveway she could DRIVE. She was so excited and she does a pretty good job (with a little help).

Cinderella, Tinkerbell, Pig and Horse!
