Happy Halloween

So I'm a week late, but we did get out and celebrate Halloween last week as a family of 4. We visited the Seefeldts for a quick photo op and then went to the church I grew up in to see our cousins and play some games. I tried to find a costume for Levi that was not very involved because I figured he wouldn't put up with much this year. I thought I had done a great job with the fireman (just a jacket and a hat) but he adamantly refused to wear it all the times I tried to get him excited about it leading up to Halloween. But we got him dressed on Monday evening and he never took it off! He walked all around the carnival and played games and picked out candy and just had a blast. It was a great night!

Then we came back to our house to hand out candy. We easily had over a hundred kids come to our door trick-or-treating and we still had leftover candy! The cousins came over to play and pass out candy and celebrate this silly holiday together. This is one of the reasons we moved home-- for our kids to grow up with their cousins!
