Happy Halloween 2010!

What a fun night! After MUCH anticipation tonight was trick-or-treating and Halloween for our family... little Paul tried to explain to me tonight that his un-stellar behavior this morning (and fantastic behavior tonight) was due to being soooo excited for trick or treating (and sad that we couldn't do it in the morning)... hmm...he's either very honest or smarter than we think!
We got the kids treat bags from Pottery Barn Kids- too hard to resist this year since they had ones which matched their costumes. Kaitlyn figured out what to do with it a bit quicker....
Either way, we showed up at Gram and BB's by 4pm ready to trick or treat....and managed to successfully pass the time by having dinner, playing outside and then getting ready by 6pm to head out.
Our ghost and cupcake:

Paul and Kate checking out Gram and BB's candy supply to make sure that they have enough.
Can you tell they're excited?
And they're off!

At the first house:

At the second house Kaitlyn hadn't yet gotten the concept of trick-or-treating and figured why not play with the big rock (don't worry, she figured it out.... "trich tree")
We ended up being out for about 30 minutes, and that seemed to be plenty for our gang (no complaints from those of us starting to get cold!). Then back to the house for a treat.
After a busy night, Paul and BB had an intellectual conversation about the 'new' leantoo at Raquette Lake and how it was built.

Hope everyone had a great Halloween! Now onto celebrating Paul's 4th birthday in 9 days....
