Halloween is my favorite holiday, next to Christmas. October has been filled with fun activities such as going to the pumpkin patch with the preschool class, boo @ the zoo & trunk or treating at church. We went to the pumpking patch and had a great time picking out pumpkins. Of course, we had to pick out the biggest pumpkins we could find. Like carrying 3 pumpkins by myself wasn't bad enough, I had to carry 3 heavy ones. Alison LOVED the haunted houses. She probably does better in them than I do.
The kids had a halloween party at preschool. They got to wear costumes and bring home a ton of candy. This year we are street lights. When I had the idea the kids were totally into it. That, of course, changed when the costumes hit the stores. It took alot of convincing to get them to wear the street lights. After the prek party they are said.... "I thought I wanted to be a ..princess, batman, scooby doo, etc." Next year I'm pretty sure they won't go with the triplet theme.
We have taken them trick or treating twice so far. They really don't need to go out on halloween, they have so much candy already. The costumes are way to cute to only wear 1 day.
