Halloween Kids

Wow! What a night :) The excitement was contagious.... Time to trick-or-treat! But first, dinner. Homemade chicken noodle soup, bread and spicy pumpkin muffins for mom and dad. To our surprise, a red car pulled up the driveway. It was Auntie Deena and Auntie Allie with goodies! Auntie Deena had candy from Grandma, candy from she and Raj and homemade cupcakes in a darling Halloween box. What a way to start the excitement. With everyone dressed in many layers Daddy and the kids headed out. I was on dog and door duty. 30 minutes later they all returned hot with a tired Emmi. The boys peeled off layers and headed out again. Emmi was ready to eat candy and watch a kid-show. The boys continued for another hour... they came back with quite a haul. Now they are coming down off the ceiling before going to bed. I'm happy to report that the dogs did great. Molly barked at every knock and door bell (no surprise there), but Jeep just wanted out of the family room. So what does a puppy do, escape. I was worried as I was in the middle of opening the door when I discovered him, but he was fine. No barking, no leaving the house, just curious to what was going on. Another Halloween gone and we look forward to next year (especially, Daddy!).
