Trick-or-Treat!
Halloween has come and gone, but since I am always a wee bit behind on this blog, I will take the time to recap.
With Halloween being on a Wednesday (church night), we had to budget our time wisely. We decided to trick-or-treat with some of our church friends from 6:00-6:30 before heading to Bible class. The houses in our friends' neighborhood are close together, so the kids were able to cover a good bit of ground in a short time.
Before leaving home, we snapped some pictures. Oreo loves to trick-or-treat (in other words, she loves to walk around the neighborhood and interact with all the people), but since we were not coming back home, she had to stay behind. That didn't stop us from dressing her up for photos! Last year she and Emily were both cowgirls, so we coordinated her outfit with Andrew this year. How cute is this rufferee?
Emily was Cleopatra. She loved this costume!
We took a group photo before the trick-or-treating began. Our friends were Jordyn Wieber and a Cardinals player that I can't remember, but who obviously has a very thick beard. :)
After church, we donned costumes once again and gathered the kids in the parking lot for an unofficial trunk-or-treat (those of us with kids just got together and gave out candy). I loved seeing the little babies with the puffy, cute costumes. I don't miss having a baby, but they sure are adorable on these special occasions!
Despite the fact that the kids didn't have as much time to enjoy the usual Halloween festivities, it was a wonderful evening. I always enjoy being with members of my Christian family, and this added to the fun for all of us!

Andrew was LeBron James for the second year in a row. He had another basketball jersey to wear, but his glasses and sweat bands coordinated so much better with his Heat jersey that he decided to do a repeat.
I think he has an unfair advantage with the rufferee.
