Halloween 2008!

Halloween this year was very exciting, because both girls were into it for the first time. Meadow was a bat girl, and Heather was Thomas the Tank Engine (Heather LOVES Thomas). The Sunday before Halloween, daddy took them to the Trick or Treat Train at the Colorado Railroad museum - they loved the train! They also had a Halloween party with their playgroup, and got to go trick or treating at both mommy and daddy's work on Halloween. Halloween night, daddy took the girls trick or treating in the neighborhood for the first time, and they did a good job - they were nervous to knock on the doors at first, but they got the hang of it, as well as saying trick or treat and thank you. Finally, they ended Halloween by playing games and trick or treating (again) at the annual fall festival at church. In the end, they collected about 100 times more candy in those days than they have eaten in both their lifetimes (alas, the candy will be vanishing from the house soon!).
