Our 2nd Stop on Halloween was at Chris and Amanda's for our 2nd Annual Halloween Party with our good old friends from Provo. Here Chef Chris holds Kensington. In the second picture our family poses with Dylan and Abigail, who dressed up as Captain Hook and Snow White. Amanda made the cute flower hat for Kensington (which she was not happy about wearing at the time), and the last picture shows Kensington wiped out after the night was over. We got to take all the kids trick-or-treating while Amanda and Amanda relaxed with the younger kids. The neighborhood was alive and HAPPENIN'! It was almost LOUD- there were so many people out there freezing their buns off trying to get candy. Raleigh and Dylan were the fastest and kept about a full house-length ahead of the rest of us. Dallas and Dionne traded off holding Chooby. Madeline was in the middle, and Abigail trailed behind. Rikki and Kevin helped us with any stragglers, and it went really well! We only had a couple of near-fatalities when we tripped over cords holding up puffy Halloween decorations in people's yards. (Guess we should've stayed on the sidewalks, but we were trying to keep up with the kiddies.) They all got the hang of saying "Thank You" audibly, and we had a really good time. After about an hour of Trick-or-Treating, we went back to the Lewis' to defrost, eat some pumpkin cake, sneak some of the kids' GOOD candy, and catch up with our buddies. Then we packed our kids in the car and drove our long drive home with super-tired, sugar-overloaded kids. But we had a lot of fun, and we'll do it again next year!
