Halloween Update

Sorry, it has taken me awhile to get this up.....don't know what I have been doing.

Trick or treating was so much fun with the boys.  Ben kinda got it this year.  I was so proud of my little FROG.  He went up the houses and tried to say trick or treat, but it did not always come out right.  He did, however, always say, "Thank you" and that was very understandable.  He lasted just up and down our street.

Since Max was a little older this year, I decided to take him out and go around the block.  He did great.  The first house we went to had a super scary monster whose head popped up and turned around.  Max looked at me and I reminded him that it was Halloween and everything is pretend.  He turned around and walked up the driveway telling himself, "I am brave, I am brave, I am brave."  Funny little man.  He did wonderfully until we were at one house and this man scared the crap out of him......he came screaming down the drive way to me.  I gave that man a piece of my mind.  He ended up giving Max 8 or 9 pieces of candy.  The nerve of that man scaring a 4-old that way.   Watch out for the Momma Bear when someone hurts my kid.

We have lots of candy, but the kids are not so interested in eating it.  They get one piece at night after dinner, but don't really ask about it.  Matt and I on the other hand are eating candy like mad.  Cannot believe we still have some.
