It's a Jolly Holiday???????

Tonight was the night that we took our kids on their first trick or treat adventure. The businesses on the town square host a trick or treat event for little ones from 3:30-6pm, so it seemed like the perfect opportunity to get our feet wet. And, well, we did, quite literally. It was cold and began to rain towards the end! But Layla loved it and had a great time.

As you can see, the kids went as Mary Poppins and Burt the chimney sweep. Thank you Miya for sharing your Mary Poppins goods with Layla. She was walking on air in that outfit. She was even trying to talk in a British accent. Cooper, surprisingly, kept his whole outfit on the entire time, but never did push his broom. He was too confused about what was going on, why people looked so strange, and why oh why people kept putting things in his bag (he didn't yet understand what candy was).

Now, as I watch the kids throwing themselves off the steps, jumping from the couch to the chair and running full force into the bathroom wall (giggling the whole time), I am 100% sure the first thing I will do when they go to bed is get rid of the sugar in their trick or treat bags!
