Walkin' the block

Halloween was alot of fun this year. With all the changes in our wards, our ward Christy Meadows and another ward Viewpoint were dissolved and changes were made to make another ward Chapel Heights, there wasn't a trunk or treat planned like usual. Everyone might think,"So What?", however; 4 of my 6 children have never been door to door on Halloween because we always went to the church for trunk or treat and came home with tons of candy. And so the day arrived and all the kids dressed up and then added 3 more kiddos to our clan making 9 in all. We walked around the houses and did the normal thing. You should hear it when 9 kids all say "Trick or Treat" together at a house. One lady actually called us a "brood" lol. The amount of treaters on our block was incredible! People were coming out of the woodworks! Jimmy loved it and can't wait for next year, he is already planning on decking out the house. We ran out of candy, which is good because there is less for me to get into. Jessica was Belle, Jeana was a spider enchantress, Jillian was Little Red Riding Hood, Jordyn was Pooh, James was Indiana Jones and Johnston was Darth Vader. Even though Jessica is positive that they received more candy at the trunk or treat and plans on petitioning her father next year into getting it planned again hehe. By then she will be 16 and still plans on trick or treating, ya me! One of my biggest joys was finishing Jillian's dress for her costume. It is a first but hopefully not last for me. I have to say that it was alot of fun to see the kids run to and fro and JT really got into it this year. Can't wait for next year!
