Neighborhood Halloween Party

We stayed in town this year for Halloween.
As most of you know, we usually go to my parents house.
This year we decided to stay here and experience Halloween in our Hood!

Lexi and her friend, Bailey organized a Halloween party.
The neighbors came and we all ate and played games before the trick-or-treating began.

I made decorative pretzel rods:

Lexi as a ladybug and Cooper as Optimus Prime.
BTW - this was Cooper's first year to have an opinion about what he wanted to dress up as!
BOO! I REALLY wanted him to be a garden gnome... but, nooooo.....
I lost!~

They had a costume contest & Cooper won the "Tough Award"!
Lexi and Bailey made the cute awards and made sure every child got one :)

Taking the time out to pose for the camera :)



Bobbing for Apples!

My mom makes this for Halloween, so since we weren't together:
The Snake Sandwich LIVES ON!!

After trick-or-treating,
SO HAPPY with all the candy he got!

In our neighborhood, we have a house that sets up a Haunted House.
This was our first year to try it out.
The girls, Lexi & Bailey, REALLY wanted to go!!

Here they are before going in!

We got separated, so D and I got to go together -
before anybody says anything -
Lexi wanted to go with Bailey,
and Bailey wanted to go with her mom,...

After coming out, I am laughing so hard, because I screamed like a little girl when somebody was about to get D!! Lexi thought it was HILARIOUS!

It was such a FUN night!!
We missed Grandma Cissy & Big Daddy SO much,
hopefully next year we can spend it together.
