We were probably the first trick or treaters out the door in our neighborhood (we were going to start at 5:00, but held off until 5:45). There were only 2 houses that Kaylea was a little scared to go to - one had a big blow up ghost and the other had a guy dressed up pretty scary :)
Our neighbors had an Elmo pinata that they let kids take 3 swings at with a baseball bat. Kaylea, of course, wanted a turn...she was clearly the smallest kid swinging the bat. I held her up, and she swung 3 times. She didn't do much damage, but I think she liked the idea of beating up on Elmo.
Is it just me, or do people love to give gigantic handfuls of candy to the younger kids? We only stayed out for 45 minutes, but Kaylea had plenty of candy.
When we got back to the house, Kaylea wanted to help hand out candy - she did a great job. I thought for sure she would be up all night, but she pretty much crashed!

one of the scary houses she wouldn't go to - do you blame her????

It looks like a fun day! I am amazed at how brave Lucas was trick or treating. Our kids are growing up.
