Halloweenie Roast and Trick or Treating

Our next door neighbor in our new neighborhood hosts an Annual Halloweenie roast at her house each year on Halloween and then all the kiddos go trick or treating together while some of the families with grown children man the table where we all put our buckets of candy for all the kiddos who come to trick or treat our street.  It is the one stop candy spot. We were very excited about this event and had a great time getting to know our neighbors a little a better.

Our goofy Giraffe who has taken to smiling and saying "cheese" every time she sees a phone or camera. 

Building the fire for the roast 

Logan, Adeline, and Callum 

Brett with the fire that he played a big role in building.  Finley was a little feisty last night and was determined to either play in the fire or ... 

the ice bucket.  Despite it being 50 degrees outside she was happy as a clam playing with the cold drinks and ice (we decided this was a safer choice then the fire) 

A group shot of all the kiddos (and everyone who was dressed up).  The chef has the youngest resident of our street (4 months old) dressed up liked a lobster in the pot, it was adorable.


Callum decided he wanted to try bobbing for apples; however, he really wanted to use his hands and not his mouth but... 

we did finally convince him to try. 

Ready to roll 

We gave Finley her own basket this year (it is a small one) and she refused to let it go.  She held on to it very tightly and proudly showed it to everyone.  She also tried to sample the few goodies she acquired straight through the wrappers.

The nice thing about all the neighbors having their candy out on a table was at the end of the night we could sift through C's candy and exchange his "peanut" candy with something he could eat and not have all the substitutions be Laffy Taffy.
