Toward the end of this week we had been told there was a chance trick or treating could be cancelled due to the weather, so I waited until today to get the candy. As the day progressed, the weather never improved, so I was trying to think of a way that the kids could still dress up, get the candy, but stay home. At first we had thought maybe they could decorate their bedroom doors, then one at a time go up, knock, and go bedroom trick or treating. Then Josh came up with a brilliant idea of us hiding the candy all around the downstairs area and having the kids find them. Now, we had to go see if we could get the kids to go for the idea. You know what, it was easy as pie! They were so excited, not one of them said no...happy kids, happy parents!!
So, Rachel, Caleb & Michael decided they wanted to make some decorations for the walls and doors.
Next up, it was time to get dressed and take some pictures.
Our kids LOVE doing silly face poses....lol
This has to be my FAVORITE picture of the night. Every time I look at it I can't help but laugh. All I said to them was do a silly pose and this is what I got....it's like she's saying "What am I going to do with all these BOYS?".....SO FUNNY!
After we had fun taking pictures it was time to eat....pizza of course :)
This is where the fun began. Josh and I had the kids go upstairs and wait in Ethan's room while we hid the candy downstairs. Here are a couple of our cute hiding places....
After hiding all the candy the kids were ready to go at it. We asked Michael what was going on with his costume and he said he was hot...lol
Waiting for Daddy to say GO....
And they're OFF....
In the end, they all said this was SO much fun and they were so glad we did it. YAY!!
Until Next Time,
Michelle
