Okay, I know it is almost a month after Halloween, but time flies when you have a very busy life!
The boys really enjoyed their first Halloween (as far as we can tell).
David chose a Batman costume (complete with utility belt that lights up) and Michael chose a Cowboy / Sheriff costume (because it came with a hat).
David had a 'Character Parade' at school that allowed the kids to dress up and parade around the school while parents and other students cheered. They carried a book that went with their costume and had a good time. Chris and Michael went up to the school and helped David carve a pumpkin before the Character Parade. Unfortunately I had to be at work.
That night, the boys and I met up with some friends to go trick-or-treating in their neighborhood. We had pizza and drinks before heading out. We hit about 20 homes and the boys really had a good time going to the doors and saying (their version) "Trick or Treat"! It sounded more like :Twik or Tweat! TankU!
