Trick or Treat






Last night, our family visited all of our grandparents and great-grandparents for Halloween. The night started with a visit to Amommie's house where we realized in our haste Eli had his shoes on the wrong feet! After Amommie's, we headed over to Nona and Poppa's. Both Ashlynn and Eli were mostly interested in running circles around their house, which is usually the case. (They both love the long hallway with the mirror at the end!) After visting, we headed to Chick-fil-A (Ashlynn's choice) for supper. Pepa, Gigi, and Aunt Caralee met us there and visited while we ate supper. They left just in time to greet us at their door for more goodies! Our last stop was the Allen's home. C-C and Pops were there handing out candy, so we collected our share! On the way home Ashlynn said, " I don't want to trick or treat again, I need my bed!" I guess since we had been in and out of the car all night, she thought we were headed somewhere else! The kids fell asleep almost immediately. This morning we checked out our goody bags to find that we could have a fun breakfast with some of the treats. The kids enjoyed mini muffins, bananas, and Nutri-Grain Bars. What a fun, exhausting night. 10 Enjoy the pics from our wanderings!

Great pictures of our two sweet and precious grands. I especially like the one of Amommie and the children. You don't know how much it means to her for you all to include her. She loves all of you.
