Trick or Treat

In Des Moines the kids go trick-or-treating on October 30th, it is called Beggar's Night. This was the first year we took Ethan, the weather was perfect and we had so much fun!

The little cowboy with Shannon, the little candy corn witch, were so cute going to every door with their orange buckets!

It was impossible to get them to both stop long enough for a picture! No stopping when candy is involved.

Ethan literally ran the whole night. As soon as he got his treat he would run down the driveway hand his bucket to me to hold and his hat to Clark to hold as we walked the 20 feet to the next house. Then he would put his hat back on, grab his bucket and go up to the next door. Watching him run in his little homemade chaps, and the little jean jacket that Clark used to wear was pretty much my favorite part of the whole night.

When we got in the car to leave I asked Ethan if he had fun, he said "no, that was hard." Such hard work running from door to door begging for his parent's candy supply, but boy am I loving the Almond Joys.
