We all had fun trick-or-treating! Ben's sister, Heather, and her husband, Tom, and their son, Trevor, came over to go with us. (I have a picture of them and I'll do another layout for it maybe later today. Heather found a really cute costume.) Heather & I helped hand out candy at first while the guys took the kids out. Then Heather & Tom stayed to pass out more candy while I went w/ Ben & the kids. I didn't get to walk around w/ the kids last year, so I wanted to this year. The kids received TONS of candy! And I have lots leftover cuz I went so crazy at the store buying all the kinds that I like. Ooops! ha ha. Ben and I get some of the "good stuff" (aka chocolate) from the kids loot and they get all the rest. We go ahead and let the kids have their candy and do as they please unless it gets out of hand and they won't eat anything but candy, then we take it away and only let them have a few pieces at a time. I mean c'mon, it's the one time out of the year that they get to have all that candy. It's what bein' a kid is all about, right? Well, they're really sweet about sharing w/ us, too. I only get upset when I find wrappers all over the house. The rule is if I see wrappers, then I will take their candy away and they don't get any that day. I had to remind them last night and they were all very quick about cleaning up!
While I put the kids to bed, Ben and a couple of his friends, went to Mill Ave to strut their stuff! They had a good time and once again, Spider-Man was a HUGE hit! Glad y'all had FUN!

wow love your layouts! way to go lady! you rock! so fun you guys stopped by! your kids are so cute! Liberty was bummed she missed Felicia at our house! and Joy was just plain peeved she fell asleep so early!
I'm glad to hear I'm not the only mom that lets her kids eat their candy. And we also have a wrapper issue. As long as I don't see any wrappers they can have it but if I see wrappers I take it away. Cute pages too!
Very cute pages. Sounds like you guys had a great night. Halloween is so fun I love to walk my kids aroun. Braden had a hurt toe so we didn't got to far. They had fun passing out the candy.
