Happy Halloween

This Halloween has been good Carsten understands the general concept of Halloween and doesn't seem scared of anyone else in costumes. For River this is her first Halloween and she was pretty much puzzled by it. We had two Halloween parties and 2 different days trick or treating. Both of the parties were good and the kids had lots of fun. River was a ladybug for Halloween and quite cute I thought Carsten was Lightning McQueen or a Dinosaur depending on the day. For the parties he was the car and for trick or treating he was the Dinosaur.

The kids also each got a pumpkin at the pumpkin patch. Carsten had a hard time picking one for him and one for River. There were just to many options.

On Saturday we went down to Steveston for a kids trick or treating from the merchants. Carsten was awake for the first half and then River was awake for the second when Carsten fell asleep. It was good but very busy but the weather cooperated which is what mattered. River got a ton of awws and although completely puzzled is quite happy with the suckers she was allowed to have.

Tonight just Carsten and I went out trick or treating because it was so windy. We made it around our area and then had to come home because Carstens bag was full. Carsten had a great time going house to house saying Rick or Reat. One house had a wooden duck and cat sitting beside the door and Carsten wanted to take them more then the candy. Everyone thought he was very cute and it was a great time taking him out. He has a huge stash of candy and chips which he will be sharing with everyone so life is good.
