After Lucas and I picked Lauryn up from school, we came home, ate lunch and got ready in our costumes for the rest of the evening. Our "theme" this year was The Princess and The Frog. I figured there probably won't be many years where I'll be able to coordinate their costumes so I wanted to take advantage of it. :)
Then it was time to start the fun! First we went to my grandparents and, of course, the kids got spoiled. :) Then we went to my Mom's house and got some yummy homemade treats. Then it was of to my brother's but that was just a quick trip because we're still coughing and my brother and niece weren't feeling good either so I just ran to the door to drop off some treats and they sent some for Lauryn. After that, we headed to our old neighbor's house for a quick visit. We've trick-or-treated at their house since Lauryn was a baby so it wouldn't be right if we didn't stop by. :)
We headed back home because our friends, Ed and Michelle, were coming over with their kids to trick-or-treat with us. Ed wasn't feeling well so he stayed home but Michelle and the kids came and after we got them all bundled up, we headed out.
Lloyd stayed home with Lucas and handed out candy. I don't know how many trick-or-treaters we had but we went through about 500 pieces of candy. After Michelle and the kids left, and the streets were clear of kids, Lauryn, Lucas and I went to my aunt's house for our last visit of the night. It's become a tradition to go there after and visit for a bit. Unfortunately, we were all getting pretty tired, as you can see by the picture below, and since Lauryn had school today we couldn't stay too long. We had a nice visit though and got some more yummy treats.
Once we got back home, Lloyd got Lauryn down for the night and I did the same with Lucas. After such a long day, we were whooped. Lloyd went to bed and after cleaning up a little, I followed suit.
