Yesterday was Halloween and the kids were thrilled to finally be able to dress up! We had an eventful day yesterday, so I waited to post this until today.
First thing in the morning, Laila's school had an awards assembly for the first quarter and we were invited to attend. The teachers gave out awards for perfect attendance, then each class honored the students chosen for the responsibility award and the most improved award. It was no surprise Laila earned the responsibility award for the 3rd year in a row! I'm still so proud of her, and she was proud of herself, too.

After school was over the kids all got ready to go "Trunk or Treat" at the local park! This was the first year in 5 years Dustin was off work and able to attend the festivities with us. I must say, "Trunk or Treat" is such an awesome idea! I love how clean, safe, and well planned the event is, this was our second year attending and I was beyond pleased! This year the girls dressed up and Dustin Jr. had different plans, he was not wearing a costume for anything, so we settled on a soccer jersey and warm up pants.

After the "Trunk or Treat" experience, we went over to our friend, Bobbi-Jo's house for a little house to house trick or treating! The girls went with Bobbi-Jo's daughter and little D slept. Dustin and I had fun visiting and chatting while the girls collected candy close by. Thanks to my strategic planning, we were home and the kids were bathed and in bed by 7:30pm! A little later than normal considering it was a school night, but still within good time! The girls each picked a sandwich bag full of candy and left a big offering for The Switch Witch, who came and took all the candy and left awesome prizes instead! Laila and Kenadi woke up this morning to find matching Jack o' Lantern aprons, a Halloween pillow and matching blanket! Mega score!
I hope you all had a safe and fun Halloween!
LOVE IT! I'm so glad the Switch Witch has found her way to your home! GO S.W.! The girls, and even Little D looked just so adorable! Glad they had fun!
